Pioneer — Tungsten Customs in Milford, Connecticut

A series featuring new Krrbies in new towns across the globe who are breaking unexplored territory. Find out what they have to sell, trade or giveaway.

After years of working on Wall Street, Jeremy Medow got the seven year itch. He moved to New Haven, Connecticut, left his post on the trading floor, and turned his lamp building hobby into a business. From scavenging junk to creating wall sconces with vintage Killark industrial lamp enclosures, Jeremy’s process has come a long way. You can find his industrial and modern light fixtures on Krrb at Tungsten Customs. While his lighting creations are not available in local stores, this Krrb pioneer is blazing trails in Connecticut.

Jeremy isn’t just handy with a miter saw. He’s also building sleek coffee tables to order. In search of young, design-oriented people who appreciate the beauty of well-made objects, Jeremy turned to the Apartment Therapy network. Although he’s in an emerging Krrb area, his lamps are popular with the Greater Tri-State area.
