RAW Designs

RAW Designs Specializing in period furniture and lighting from the late 1920s through the1930s Modernist Movement. My name is Ray W Arondoski lll.

All pieces are in a nice original state but can undergo a full restoration to suit your own personal space. I am a pre-war classic car restorer with a passion for the Art Deco Machine age period. I started designing and building my own pieces about six years ago and heavily into lighting the past few months. I do not copy but I follow very close to that period and style. almost every piece is designed and built by myself except for the lighting clusters witch are made in the US.

The pair are clean, polished and complete. One has the original glass shades and the other has new acrylic shades until I find another set of original ones.
Still unknown designer at this time but definitely early to mid 1930s.

RAW Design started from my passion for Modernism and the lack of unique period designs available. I worked in a place that pushed me to expand my ideas and acquire the necessary tools. That time has passed, and I now have a new passion. I have wanted to paint for some time now and always had excuses not to try. Well, it's time to put brush to canvas and paint. Abstract, acrylic on board
