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.
