Heritage Lighting Company has a long and storied history, dating back to the early 1900s. Founded by two brothers, John and Charles Wetmore, the company started as a small family business that manufactured hand-blown glass lamps. Over the years, HeritageLightingCompany has grown into one of the largest lighting manufacturers in the world.
What should I know about this?
At the beginning of the 20th century, light bulbs were expensive and relatively rare. As electricity became more widely available in homes and businesses, hand-blown glass lamps became popular in American households. The Wetmore brothers recognized this opportunity and founded HeritageLightingCompany to make high-quality glass lamps accessible to as many people as possible.
Throughout its history, HeritageLightingCompany has constantly evolved to keep pace with changing trends in lighting design. In the 1940s, they introduced new aluminum finishes that quickly became popular for commercial spaces like factories and offices. A few decades later, they launched their first line of fluorescent lights, drastically reducing energy consumption while still providing bright light. And most recently, they have begun to focus on design, creating lighting fixtures that are functional and visually pleasing.
