The arts-and-crafts movement started during the early 1900s as a reaction to the heavy ornamentation of the Victorian era and the Industrial Revolution’s reliance on mass production.
The arts and crafts light fixtures were not only were beautiful, but also reinforced the organic and handcrafted, quality of the design style.

The arts-and-crafts style focused on craftsmanship in simple shapes with natural materials, honest construction, and spare ornamentation. It was a style that felt down to earth and accessible and made the term "simple" respectable in a refreshing way. 

Mica shades and burnished brass are typical examples of the materials used in arts-and-crafts design light fixtures. The broad horizontal lines of the light fixtures mimic those found in the strong, linear architectural features of that period.

The Mission style is a look, which can best be described as square and rustic. Particularly in lighting and furniture, Mission style means clean lines, simple construction, and natural finishes.

Even though there is a distinct difference between the two styles, their use of materials and colors make them comfortable partners.
Both feel just as appealing and comfortable today as 100 years ago.
