Located in Salem, the Oregon Supreme Court building houses the Oregon Supreme Court, Oregon Court of Appeals, and Oregon Judicial Department. Built in 1914, this three-story structure is Oregon's oldest state government building and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

As part of the building's renovation, Grand Light was entrusted with restoring and replicating the building's historic light fixtures, including pendants, sconces, ceiling lights, and torchieres. Our team carefully cleaned the brass fixture components to preserve their original antique brass finishes. Localized finish repairs were made where necessary using metallic bronze paint to blend with the existing finish. The original opal and etched glass diffusers were cleaned and conserved, and damaged glass was replaced.

For the replica fixtures, we used lost-wax casting to produce highly accurate, detailed components. Custom opal and etched glass diffusers were also fabricated to match the existing fixtures seamlessly.

It was a pleasure helping to preserve Oregon's history through this award-winning restoration!

Grand Light's 3D scanning, modeling, and printing capabilities allow us to capture the fine details of original components, transform them into precise digital models, and produce physical mockups for replication and fabrication.

Using a handheld 3D laser scanner, we’ll take detailed digital scans of historic fixture components. Once a few basic scans are captured, we’ll merge the scans, render them, and perform any additional touch-ups necessary to convert them into functional 3D models. These models are then 3D printed to scale as physical mockups to verify the dimensional accuracy and visual details before final fabrication.

At Grand Light, we're using the technology of today to preserve the craftsmanship of the past. Stay tuned as these replica components take shape in metal!

The Stephen A. Schwarzman Center at Yale University serves as a hub for student life, culture, dining, and public events. The limestone Beaux-Arts-style buildings date to 1901, when they were built to commemorate Yale's 1901 bicentennial.

For a past project at the Schwarzman Center, Grand Light specialists designed and fabricated numerous custom fixtures, as well as historically replicated lighting.

In "The Underground", the Center's dining and entertainment space, we created multiple 11-foot-diameter ring chandeliers featuring 12 lamps each, and accompanying metal-shaded pendants. Both were finished in polished brass and fitted with custom diffusers.

This project also featured multiple massive hanging staircase chandeliers, one being over 23 feet tall, and another stretching 45 feet. Our design team prepared 3D models of the fixtures before fabricating each in steel, finishing them in antique brass, and fitting them with opal globe diffusers.

To complement the space's historic character, we produced reproduction ceiling fixtures using molds made from original components. Each was cast in brass and finished in dark bronze.

Now reimagined for the next era, Yale University's Schwarzman Center continues its legacy with thoughtfully crafted lighting that honors the building's architectural history.

Newark Penn Station in New Jersey is one of the busiest rail stations in the country, serving tens of thousands of riders each day. The Art Deco and Neoclassical building was designed by prominent New York architects McKim, Mead & White and opened in 1935.

As part of a past renovation of Newark Penn Station, Grand Light restored multiple brass-and-steel zodiac-themed globe chandeliers originally produced by renowned lighting designers E.F. Caldwell & Co. After conducting an on-site survey and developing a restoration roadmap, our team returned to remove the fixtures and transport them to our factory.

Each fixture was blasted with walnut media, rinsed, and treated with a silver-enhancing solution to conserve its original silver-plated finish. We replicated 156 custom acrylic panels, using our in-factory kiln to heat and slump each one by hand. Every panel was carefully tested for fit to ensure there were no light leaks. The chandeliers were also rewired with custom electrical assemblies accommodating 30 screw-in LED bulbs.

Our artisans then delivered the restored fixtures back to Newark and assisted with their reinstallation. Now, these historic luminaires are once again illuminating the daily commutes of thousands of passengers.

Grand Light's thermal imaging capabilities are a valuable tool in light fixture restoration, helping to identify issues that aren't always visible to the naked eye.

In on-site surveys, thermal imaging provides insight into the condition of a light fixture and its environment. We can quickly and non-invasively identify hotspots, overheating, and other thermal anomalies that may indicate electrical malfunctions. Thermal cameras also measure air temperature, humidity, and ambient lighting conditions within the space where the fixture is installed.

By incorporating thermal imaging into our survey process, we can better understand the conditions of historic lighting and their setting, helping us make more informed restoration decisions.

The Virginia Mae Center is a restored Gothic-style building used for religious retreats on the grounds of Washington National Cathedral, one of the largest churches in the United States.

In a past restoration project for the Virginia Mae Center, Grand Light restored a large assortment of historic luminaires, including chandeliers, pendants, sconces, and ceiling lights.

Each fixture was stripped of debris and its deteriorated finish, leaving the raw steel exposed for refinishing. Many of the chandeliers and pendants required a custom oil-rubbed metal finish containing binders, as well as rust and UV inhibitors, while the remainder received black-painted finishes.

The electrical components were fully replaced and rewired with UL-listed products and HIPOT tested. One type of chandelier was also modified and retrofitted with LED downlights to improve spatial lighting.

It was a pleasure contributing to this award-winning restoration, preserving these historic fixtures for decades to come.

The next step in the restoration of these historic brass and copper wall sconces is refinishing, which includes patination, burnishing, and lacquering.

Once stripped of their original finish, the raw fixture components were submerged in a patina solution until the desired darkening was achieved, then rinsed and dried. Next, the newly patinated surfaces were lightly burnished with a Scotch-Brite pad to highlight the bronze/copper and antique brass tones. Lastly, the burnished fixture parts were brought to our spray booth, where they received a coat of metal lacquer to provide a glossy, protective finish.

We can't wait to see these beautifully restored sconces installed and shining with new life! Stay tuned for the final update.
