In December of 2021 at 86 years of age, Katie announced her retirement after a 38-year career that began as an entrepreneur of sorts and ended with her handiwork illuminating thousands of homes across The United States, Canada, and beyond.
Our hats are off to the woman who we will always remember as a Colonial Lighting Pioneer. Blazing a trail, making a way, daring to take the risk in starting a business. Because of you thousands of homes in America are lilluminated with heirloom quality fixtures, WELL DONE Katie Lavy!
As a gesture of thanks to those who have purchased Katie’s products over the years, Katie’s Handcrafted Lighting has obtained Katie’s consent to hand sign 25 of the last fixtures she made.
This Signature Series will be limited to 25 fixtures that contain Katie’s personal handcrafting and signature, as well as be hand numbered. No 2 fixtures will be alike. If you purchase a particular model and color in this numbered series, it will be the only one in that model and color. Allowing you to have the ONLY Signature Series fixture like it.
The first of these fixtures will be available for sale in North Canton, Ohio in the fall of 2022. Visit “A Gathering of Colonial Wares” on September 23-24, 2022 at Pine Cone Gift Shoppe, 101 S Main St, North Canton, OH 44720 to purchase the first releases in this series.
