Premium Lighting Showroom Serving Newington, CT
Tired of the limited, cookie-cutter lighting aisles at the big-box home improvement warehouses along the Berlin Turnpike? For over 50 years, Avon Lighting Showroom has been Connecticut's trusted destination for stunning residential fixtures, expert design advice, and unmatched custom services.
Located just a short drive north of Newington, our family-owned showroom features thousands of fixtures on display, allowing you to see the true scale, finish, and quality of your lighting in person before it goes into your home.
Why Newington Homeowners Make the Drive to Avon

- Connecticut’s Largest Lampshade Selection: We stock over 2,000 custom lampshades in every shape, fabric, and size imaginable. Don't guess on sizes online or settle for basic department store options—bring your lamp base with you from Newington, and our team will help you find the absolute perfect fit right on our showroom floor.

If you have a fixture that needs a second life, bring it along on your visit from Newington for our professional in-house lamp repair and rewiring services.
