Company Overview

Shades of Light is one of the fastest-growing e-commerce brands in the $800 billion home furnishings market. We strive to inspire our customers to distinguish their unique style with a highly curated selection of hand-picked and exclusive designs. Shades of Light started from humble beginnings in 1986 as a small, single retail location in historic Richmond, Virginia selling unique, high-style lighting designs. Since that time, the company has grown to become a national, multi-channel retailer of lighting and other home décor products, including rugs, furniture, mirrors, fans, and wall décor. True to its heritage though, the company has remained singularly focused on its curated collection of high-style products and unique lighting designs, many of which are produced in-house by the company’s own staff of highly trained artisans.
