About us
We make lighting and furniture out of genuine antler sheds. It all started as a hobby for Nate Nisley, owner and craftsman of Antlers by Design, and was inspired by his love for nature. Antlers are naturally shed each spring from deer, moose, and elk. No animals are harmed in the collection of the antlers that are used for your masterpiece. We specialize in high quality and handcrafted antler lighting fixtures and furniture for every room in your home that is sure to catch anyones eye! The method of the construction for each well built piece is very unique and components carry the UL listing. We love a challenge and welcome all custom design ideas for your needs. You’ll also receive 40% off the standard retail price when you provide your own antlers to create a lighting fixture or piece of furniture. We will also trade for or buy any antlers that you may have.
Chandeliers
We create chandeliers from whitetail, moose, and elk antlers. They can be built as large as you want, and have one, two, or even three tiers, with as many lights on them as you want. Smaller chandeliers look great in tighter areas, like narrow entryways and lower ceilings. Larger chandeliers are best for big open spaces or cathedral ceilings.
Lamps
We create antler lamps of all sizes from table lamps to floor lamps, using elk, moose, and whitetail antlers. Our lamps are a great way to add antler decor to your home at a very affordable price. Please note that all lamps are sold without shades, but do include bulbs and finials.
Other Creations
We also create other antler furnishings including large table bases, end table bases, candle holders, and wine bottle holders. We use our non-craft grade antlers to make and sell dog chews.
