Washington Post Magazine

We were featured in last weekend's Washington Post Magazine's "Spring Design Trends" feature. I made a collage of the blurb, the chandelier we featured, and our ad with coupon.




I know, you can't read it, so here's what it says:

Dominion Electric Supply Company
http://www.dominionelectric.com/index.htm


"One of the best ways to change the feel of a room is to update its lighting, and Dominion Electric Supply, with showrooms in Laurel, Arlington and Chantilly, has just the look you want. One of the region's leading lighting distributors since 1940, Dominion Electric Supply likes to stay at the forefront of the newest lighting trends. At press time, Dominion buyers were at the nation's largest lighting show, where one of the biggest trends is repurposing "found" objects to create uniquely beautiful fixtures.


This Axel orb chandelier from Currey & Company comes in several sizes and variations. Its steel frame construction provides a framework for curved wooden slats that feature a chestnut wood stain, which is then slightly washed for an aged, used appearance."


And here is a better picture of that Currey Axel orb chandelier, model # 9015:







Lastly, our ad features this semi-flush fixture from Murray Feiss, # SF285 BRB/ORZ:

And here is that coupon ~ if you don't have last Sunday's magazine, feel free to print it from here and bring it in to redeem!

Solar LED Spotlights from Kenroy

We haven't brought these in to stock yet, but I'm curious to hear what people think about them! Traditionally, when people ask if we carry solar lights, we've always had to say "no". But this introduction from Kenroy just might have us changing our tune! We saw a sample last week, and we were all really impressed with the light output. What do you think? Would you like to see us stock and display them? We'd love to hear your thoughts! (email me any time at cschla@dominionelectric.com)
