In 2001, Kevin set out to produce a piece that would achieve a very romantic and natural quality of light.

Innovation came forth with Reilly’s distinctive electrical wax candle, a permanently burning source of soft,

ambient light. The iconic ‘Altar’ was born. Kevin’s creations diffuse a romantic light from day to night. Chandeliers, sconces, floor lamps and table lamps elegantly fill any room with their sculptural form.

Balancing tradition and modernity, the Kevin Reilly Collection reflects the desire to create an atmosphere

that is both minimalist and magical.

INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTING COLLECTIONS

Kevin Reilly’s collections are available in a range of sconces, table lamps, floor lamps and pendants. The geometric lines, inspired by industrial design and the authentic materials used create these timeless light fixtures. Playing with transparency, the materials and contrasts offer a subtle blend of different raw materials - metal, paper, crystal glass, and candle wax - for a more contemporary atmosphere. With a style of his own, Kevin Reilly offers varied collection pieces that can find their place in all types of spaces, whether indoor or outdoor. Kevin Reilly was one of the first designers in 2006 to launch a high-end

collection of outdoor lighting. This line was manufactured with much technical refinement, and has become an excellent solution for landscape architects and designers.

The new Kevin Reilly Collection is working to incorporate metal in a way that reveals its unique filtering abilities, while also maintaining its high sculptural appeal. The metal lampshade guides the light source - a true work on the reflection of where light is born. With all of his success, Kevin Reilly Collection is now distributed through over 70 showrooms worldwide.

TRADITIONAL SAVOIR-FAIRE

In Montgomery, Alabama a small team of truly dedicated artisans work together to assemble each lighting fixture by hand. The meticulous process of bringing each piece to life leaves no detail overlooked. Kevin relies on a time tested savoir-faire and traditional craftsmanship to ensure the quality of its creations.

The workroom is divided into seven different areas, each playing an essential role in the craftsmanship of his handmade fixtures.The first step in production is when the fixture begins to take life. Raw metal is cut, welded and assembled by hand. Each metal piece of the fixtures is engineered and manufactured on site. Each piece of raw steel must first be sandblasted,cleaned,darkened,and paint finished by hand.

Lamps are always wired and tested individually to ensure proper function. For candle fixtures, each candle is carved and sculpted by hand.
