Glass that catches the light just right. Clean, modern, and always a bit magical.

  • Modern glass lighting that softens and sharpens - all at once. At Research.Lighting, we treat glass as more than just a material. It’s a way to shape light, filter glow, and give form to the quiet moments in a space. This collection features pendant lights, sconces, flush mounts, and more - all designed with minimal frames and glass diffusers that do more than just shine.

    Whether it’s a matte globe, a layered shade, or a suspended orb, our glass fixtures are crafted to balance clarity and warmth. The silhouettes are clean, the finishes are subtle, and the glow? Always just right. These are modern forms with a soft touch - lighting that brings atmosphere without the noise.

  • 1. Is your modern glass lighting dimmable?
    Yes - every one of our glass light fixtures is dimmable when paired with the right dimmer. Bright, soft, or somewhere in between - you decide.

    2. Do your glass fixtures come with bulbs?
    They do. Each fixture includes the bulbs it needs, so it’s ready to shine right out of the box.

    3. What materials are used in your glass lighting?
    We work with hand-finished glass paired with steel or brass, depending on the design. These minimal glass designs are as durable as they are refined.

    4. Is the glass frosted, clear, or tinted?
    It varies by design. Some offer soft frosted finishes, others are clear for a more radiant glow. The product page will have the details - or just ask if you’re after a specific look.

    5. Can I use modern glass fixtures in a bathroom?
    Most of our sculptural glass lighting is damp-rated, meaning it’s good for bathrooms - just not in direct water zones. Always check the product page to confirm.

    6. What types of glass lighting do you offer?
    Pendants, sconces, chandeliers, flush mounts, even table lamps - all showcasing the subtle drama of glass, shaped into simple, elevated forms.

    7. Are your glass fixtures heavy?
    They’re solid, but thoughtfully designed to be easy to mount. No reinforcement needed - just the right hands for installation.

    8. Are these lights suitable for commercial spaces?
    Absolutely. Our modern glass fixtures bring balance and brightness to hotels, boutiques, restaurants, and other interiors with a design point of view.

    9. Do I need a professional to install these?
    We recommend it - especially for hardwired fixtures. Clean install, clean look.

    10. Are the glass pieces replaceable if they break?
    In most cases, yes. If something happens, reach out and we’ll do our best to help get you a replacement.

    11. Can I group glass fixtures together?
    Yes - they’re beautiful solo, but even better in pairs or clusters. Whether it’s over a kitchen island or across a hallway, modern glass lighting plays well in multiples.

    12. What’s the lead time on these lights?
    Every piece is made to order. Check the product page for the current lead time - it’s worth the wait.

    13. Can I return my glass light if it doesn’t work out?
    Since we only offer custom-built lighting, we don’t offer returns. But if you’re unsure about anything - scale, finish, placement - we’re here to talk it through before you commit.
