Robert Abbey Lighting Buyers Guide

High end lighting is an important part of any interior decorating scheme. Besides providing home illumination that allows you to safely and comfortably complete your everyday activities, it can also beautify your living spaces while creating your desired ambiance. However, the potential of your high end lighting hinges on one thing: selecting beautiful and functional indoor lighting fixtures.

Fashion Light Center is committed to helping you find high end lighting that meets your needs and goals for how you want to live in your home. This starts with offering fixtures from some of the highest quality lighting brands on the market today. In the latest edition of our buyers guide blog series, we turn our attention to another beloved brand: Robert Abbey.

Here’s a closer look at this leading high-end lighting company, its fine lighting products, and how Fashion Light Center can help you meet your needs with interior and exterior lighting from Robert Abbey and other industry leaders.

About Robert Abbey Lighting

Robert Abbey boasts a near-75-year history of designing and manufacturing fine lighting products. Since opening its doors in 1948, the company has grown to encompass a staggering 350,000-square-foot factory, design studios, and corporate offices – all nestled in the scenic foothills of Hickory, North Carolina. Most of the Robert Abbey lighting products are also made here.

Through its growth, the family-owned company has remained true to its passion for design and its commitment to offering exceptional customer service. These are among the things that have allowed Robert Abbey Lighting to thrive within a dynamic and intensively competitive marketplace.

When we say Robert Abbey is a family company, we’re not exaggerating. Many of its employees are third-generation team members. In fact, when you walk the halls of its offices or factory floor, you can expect to cross paths with multiple generations of the Robert Abbey family – all working side by side. Because they were raised in the company culture, it’s not surprising that they continue to embody it today.

Robert Abbey Lighting Styles

Robert Abbey has its own cutting-edge design studio with a talented team of designers working to create truly innovative high end lighting for modern living. However, another distinctive aspect of Robert Abbey is its partnerships with many top designers in the interior design and home furnishings spaces, including household names like Jonathan Adler, Michael Berman Limited, Rico Espinet, and Williamsburg. As a result, the company produces a staggering selection of unique lighting options in a dazzling array of designs, styles, and colors.

From Robert Abbey flush mounts and Robert Abbey sconces to Robert Abbey lamps and wall-mounted lanterns, it’s not surprising that the company’s products are favored by so many top interior designers. Whether you’re going for bold and stylish, classic and refined, or sleek and chic, this brand has you covered with timeless and elegant pieces guaranteed to make a statement in your space.

The Robert Abbey Difference

Other factors that differentiate Robert Abbey from the rest are its uncompromising commitment to value, attention to detail, and customer service. The company’s long history and sterling reputation speak to these qualities. This is also one of the things that makes Robert Abbey a perfect partner for Fashion Light Center: We also have an unwavering dedication to offering our customers transformational lighting – and the superior service to go along with it.

Speaking of attention to detail, Robert Abbey truly shines in this arena. Take its lampshades, for example. The company utilizes a time-honored joint hand and machine process, top-quality materials, state-of-the-art machinery, and exquisite details like matching fabric trim at the top and bottom of every shade the company produces.

How to Find and Choose the Best Robert Abbey Lighting

Now that we’ve covered what makes Robert Abbey fine lighting so special, you may be wondering how to choose between the many types and styles of fixtures the company offers. The good news? When it comes to lighting, there’s no right or wrong answer. There’s only lighting that you love, and there’s a lot to love about Robert Abbey.

However, this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t give your lighting ample consideration before making a purchase. Evaluating several factors, including your wants, needs, style aesthetic, and living space, can guide you to a lighting plan that will improve the functionality of your home and your quality of life. 

Perhaps your living or dining room is feeling drab or unexciting. Introducing a glamorous Robert Abbey chandelier, such as the iconic Robert Abbey Bling flush mount fixture, as a focal point can completely elevate the look and feel of the space. Or, maybe you’re trying to create a tranquil reading nook in your bedroom or den. A handsome Robert Abbey desk lamp, table lamp, or floor lamp may be exactly what you’re looking for.

If you’re undertaking a comprehensive home decorating or renovation project, meanwhile, you may be looking for an entire suite of lighting. While this can seem overwhelming, it doesn’t have to be. Assessing your needs before shopping can help you identify the products that will best fulfill them. 

Regardless of whether your lighting needs are big or small, Fashion Light Center’s design team is eager to listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and suggest lighting solutions from Robert Abbey and other top lighting designers.
