meteor lights customer feedback

“… you’ve made a bunch of shades for my clients in the past (see photos below) and I always love them!  

It’s so beautiful! And as always arrived in perfect condition…”
– Clare, One to One Studio, NYC (10/24)

“I am a happy customer of Meteor Lights. I purchased a small cone shade over 10 years ago (!), and I can’t tell you how much I have enjoyed having this beautiful shade!

Our home here in Estes Park was built by my father in 1967, and we still have, and use, most of the original furniture, lighting, and decorative items. It’s a mid-century treasure (at least it is to us!), and your lampshade has fit in perfectly.”
– Lori, Colorado Springs (10/24)


“I received my black lamp shade yesterday and it’s everything I imagined. The quality is amazing, and my decorator was jumping for joy, as was I. […] it’s amazing. I’m so happy. Thank you so much! Originally before I found you I had tried to order from another well known shade company. But they were so rude, I kept trying to ask them questions to order over about one weeks time and finally gave up. I’m glad I did because it lead me to you and your work is brilliant!”

“Not at all! I think I used the wrong word. I didn’t mean expectation, I meant it was so much better than I envisioned.

“I dig your stuff, and have sent links to your website to a couple of people. The prices seem well within reason as well. As a one-off, made-to-order craftsman myself, it gladdens me to see other, apparently successful businesses making stuff that just can’t be made in a large factory setting. I don’t think it’s at all jingoistic to think that it’s all the better that your goods are American made. All my supplies come from the Land o’ the Free as well, with the exception of some of the thread. Thanks again.” – Tony, Tumwater WA (4/11)

“I’m already the proud owner of one of your pendant lights (aqua and orange atomic 3-tier), and I couldn’t be happier with it. So much so, that I’m back for seconds, this time for my kitchen overhead fixture. A question, however: I have a feeling I’ll need a diffuser with this one, since it will be directly over-head and, hence, possibly too bright to stare directly up into (should one choose to do that). Do customers normally go with a diffuser if the pendant shade is not going to be above a table? If so, how does one change the bulb with a diffuser built in? Would I have to reach over the shade, from the top? Currently, I have a dome light in the kitchen, and reaching over its top lip top feel around for the bulb and sockets is quite the pain, so I’m not sure I’m ready to do that on this next luminescent iteration.

Here are some pics of my current Meteor shade, as well as the kitchen were a newly desired one would go. I’m thinking, currently, reverse two-tier, X-large, in Grey for the main tier, Orange for the accent tier, turquoise lanyard, and black stripes over the Grey. But, I’ve changed my mind endless times on this matter before. (If you want to feature this pendant on the website, I’ll take some better photos in better lighting with a cleaner table).” – Sarah, Columbia, MS (1/11)

Thanks again!” – Katie, Taylors, SC (1/11)
