What a bright idea. Schoolhouse Electric Co. justly famous for its 20th century fevival hand-painted shades, is making more than 95 percent of it fixtures with the new industry standard in compact fluorescents, GU24. The GU24 has a more forgiving profile than previous compact fluorescent bulbs, making it much easier for inventive manufactures to design elegant and period friendly fixtures that also offer significant energy savings.

With showrooms in Portland, Oregon and New York, Schoolhouse is also introducing several new collections including two mid century lines, two porcelain lines and a slew of new shades in new colors: hand painted vintage red and custard plus 12 new styles of opal shades.
