Remains Lighting

Brooklyn
Founded by David Calligeros in 1996, Remains Lighting used to be an off-the-beaten-path antique resource. Born out of his love of classical architecture combined with a passion for antique metalwork, David sought out vintage pieces and restored them to perfection, honing his craft through research and long hours at his workbench.

Today, Remains Lighting has evolved into a world-class maker of artisan made-to-order and custom lighting, offering an array of its original and distinctive designs as well as a fine selection of antique lighting and accessories. Its collection of artisan, made-to-order fixtures and custom commissions springs from this profound experience in the history of design and craft. For nearly twenty-five years, Remains Lighting Co. has served the interior design, architecture, and lighting design community with expert sourcing, design, and fabrication of heirloom lighting fixtures.

Remains’ fine metalwork fixtures, mirrors, candlesticks, and hand-made lamps reflect a design sensibility of restrained luxury and authenticity in conjunction with excellent craftsmanship in which elemental materials are transformed into beautiful objects. Every piece is conceived and handcrafted by skilled engineers and artisans in a 25,000 square foot, UL-certified, LEED Gold Brooklyn workshop—using the highest-quality materials, impeccable construction, and traditional craftsmanship.
