In October of 1991 Ben Goldstone and Adam Pollock founded Fire Farm. Together they share a vision of Fire Farm Studios as a collaborative forging of creative talents. They are pulling together glass makers, sculptors, metal workers, architects and designers with whom they share a common value to design and create simply beautiful, hand touched pieces. Fire Farm is in the process of developing a situation that will provide an ongoing supply of beautiful, unique, and salable items, while providing local artists with an ongoing outlet for their creativity. As we build relations with merchants around the country we see a hunger for innovative new products that are made in the United States. Simultaneously we have found many artisans in our area who are looking to make a living using their artistic skills. We plan to use the broad distribution of Fire Farm products as a conduit for a variety of products designed by a number of artists in a myriad of mediums. This will provide a single source for fresh products. It will also provide artists with an outlet for their work, and encourage the further development of American design in the 90's and beyond. We meet and work with other local artists and designers on a regular basis. We began releasing the products of these relationships to the public in 1993. In addition to our standard product line, the Fire Farm design team has developed exclusive product for a number of American retailers, hotels and restaurants. We invite you to work with us to develop exclusive designs for you needs. We have a range of different designs in a variety of materials. Our Mesh Collection features shades of Metal Mesh - Wire fabric woven from different metals. We use Copper, Bronze, Brass and Steel. The bases have a hand done rust patina finish that is unique to each piece. We are headed in a new direction. We are exploring fabrics such as Hemp muslin and Dupioni silks. We are constantly looking for fresh materials to work with. We hand build each lamp conscious of the subtle interplay of light and shadow that profoundly influences our emotions. The Mesh shades on our pieces develop a unique warm glow that creates a rich and romantic environment. We are concerned with the quality of light - consequently most of our pieces feature Dimmers that let you control the amount of light through the shades. Each rust patina base is unique, each jeweled pull cord on the Femme Fatale lamp is different. We think of each of our designs as lighting sculptures. We can get all Fire Farm Lighting Products. If you can't find what you are looking for, call or email us and we'll be happy to assist you.
