Lucas + McKearn Lighting
From a relationship that started in a cab in Dallas, January 2009, a new partnership comes to fruition in the fall of 2016. Joining forces are Elstead Lighting from the UK and Flambeau Lighting of New Orleans, to create a new business “Lucas + McKearn”.
As the name suggests, the partners are Joe McKearn, who has been the well renowned leader at Flambeau Lighting of New Orleans and Jonathan & Deborah Lucas, the British husband and wife team that run their near 50 year old lighting fixture manufacturing and design company from the country village of Alton in the South of England.
Combining art and design with intriguing function, the designers at Flambeau have created a stunning collection of luminaires, accent furniture and decorative accessories.
Flambeau showcases the works of renowned New Orleans designers Paul Grüer and Elaine Gleason, as well as Baton Rouge sculptor, Benjamin Burts. Each designer and artist has united sophisticated forms and shapes with distressed finishes of gold and silver patinas to create 21st Century antiques.
With meticulous attention to detail and quality manufacturing, Flambeau’s lamps, chandeliers, pendants, sconces, accent furniture and accessories will add a touch of intrigue and whimsy to any room. Flambeau designs are often the conversation piece in the most distinctive residences and corporations around the world.
