Did you know that Italy closes up shop for an entire month?! As I was helping someone in the store with an Italian light fixture today, I found myself saying, “If you want it here before October, we need to get your order in very soon.”

And that’s no joke. Italians take their summer holiday seriously. With lead times from Italian products running to 12-14 weeks and us having already entered May, the time has come to get those light orders in!
