Currey & Company Unveils New Additions to Bunny Williams Collection

“Light fixtures should never be taken for granted. When you look at them you should always be enamored of the detail and design,” said Williams.

Fine craftsmanship and the controlled imperfections that are the mark of handmade products are evident in the latest introductions. “I’m excited for this new, beautiful collection of lighting. A mix of fanciful and elegantly restrained forms suitable for a range of lighting purposes. I’m particularly fond of the chandeliers which easily add glamour to a room,” added Williams.

The new additions consist of three wall sconces, two chandeliers and a pendant - all classically-designed, which is a hallmark of Williams’ aesthetic. On her collaboration over the years with Currey & Company, she states: “I long to have meetings with the Currey design team! They are not only stimulating—you learn so much about production; they are true southern ladies and gentlemen. The best, not to mention they serve the best drinks, host the best parties, and most of all have the greatest humor and warmth. What a team and I am so fortunate to be a tiny part of the Currey family.”

One of the most distinctive designs of the new additions is the Bailey Chandelier. It is a large chandelier with a two-tone finish: contemporary gold leaf on the interior and French black on the exterior. Ambient light radiates between the ribbons of wrought iron in a warm glow due to the gold interior. The black chandelier has nine lights so illumination is abundant. The subtle brush strokes on the exterior show the touch of the human hand.

The Currey & Company Atlanta showroom is now located on the lobby level of building one at AmericasMart.
