The Arts and Crafts movement of the early 20th Century in reaction to the design excesses and mass production of the industrial age, emphasized design that was simple, handcrafted and true to the nature of the materials from which it was made.
The creative influences of designers and artisans such as frank Lloyd Wright, C. R. Mackintosh, Charles and Henry Green, and Kirk Van Erp, Gustaf Stickley and Louis Comfort Tiffany, established an American Art forum which embraced organic architecture, hand crafted furnishings and fine lighting united in harmonious style that encouraged a simpler lifestyle and a return to basics.
In the late 1980s, a Pasadena artisan who had grown up surrounded by the ultimate bungalows of the Green Brothers believed that the time had come again to embrace the design and lifestyle promoted by the arts and crafts movement and created what became Arroyo Craftsman.
Today Arroyo Craftsman Lighting designs and manufacturers fine architectural and landscape lighting that honors the traditions of elegant simplicity combined with quality craftsmanship.

As the trend setter in craftsman lighting design, Arroyo Craftsman has established itself as the leader in Prairie, mission and craftsman lighting fixture manufacturer.
Metal & Glass Finishes
Our hand applied finishes are the best in the industry because we take the time to let them "mature". Our unique verdigris patina is the result of an intensive three day process resulting in a complex and naturally aged appearance. All of our hand applied metal finishes will continue to mature and change with time.
