Features and types
The category brings together five product families with distinct characteristics. Understanding the differences helps you choose the right accessory for the space you want to illuminate.
Neon signs with plexiglass frame (WD LifeStyle and Ad Trend)
The luminous signs reproduce neon aesthetics with LED technology: no gas, no overheating, reduced consumption. The transparent plexiglass frame makes the lettering readable from multiple angles. Formats range from 18×18 cm to 30×40 cm, suitable for shelves, bedside tables, desks and counters. WD LifeStyle offers lettering such as Prosecco (30×15 cm) and Home (23×13 cm), ideal for living rooms and kitchens. Ad Trend expands the range with graphic designs and more direct messages — Let's Party (18×40 cm), M. Dolce Casa (30×30 cm), M. Funny Dog (30×40 cm) — designed also as an original gift for birthdays or housewarming celebrations. All run on mains electricity or USB. You can pair them with other home accessories and decorations to complete the look of a room.
Cascading chandelier lights (Lotti)
Lotti chandeliers are the most striking choice in the category. The structure with concentric circles in white painted metal with integrated fixed LEDs is available in three sizes: H 55 cm (D 15–35 cm), H 85 cm (D 25–55 cm) with 1,352 LEDs. Each model includes metal chain for hanging, SELV low-voltage safety transformer and 6-metre cable. Certification for outdoor and indoor use makes them suitable for terraces, outdoor seating areas and living rooms with high ceilings. For Christmas 2026 they are also a striking display for entrances and large rooms: a cascading structure creates a luminous focal point without requiring other decorative elements. Can be paired with LED light chains for more elaborate displays.
Themed LED decorations (Vimin Box and Tono Su Tono)
A group of versatile accessories for specific settings. The LED Balloon Heart in acrylic by Vimin Box (H 42 cm, L 23 cm) runs on batteries and is completely portable: it can be moved from one room to another without being tied to a plug. TheTree of Life by Vimin Box (H 2.50 m, D 1.30 m, white) is the most striking solution for entrances and large rooms during celebrations. Tono Su Tono offers the Cactus in gold metal with LED (H 54 cm) for contemporary interiors and the wooden bases in the shape of an anchor or fish with LED (H 30–34 cm) for nautical-style interiors. You will find further ideas in the Ad Trendsection, which includes electric polyresin fountains with integrated LEDs.
Decorative electric fountains with LED (Ad Trend)
Ad Trend's polyresin fountains combine water movement with LED lighting. The vertical fountain measures 29.5×16 cm, H 59 cm, with 3 integrated LEDs; ideal for entrances, studies and relaxation areas. The finish is stone grey, for indoor use only. The sound of moving water and LED lighting create a relaxing atmosphere — a solution that works all year round, not just during the festive season.
How to choose
For the living room or entrance in time for Christmas 2026 — A Lotti chandelier (H 85 cm with 1,352 LEDs) creates a luminous focal point without requiring other elements. Alternatively, an Ad Trend electric fountain paired with a WD LifeStyle LED mirror shelf defines a complete relaxation corner. Luminous decorations are among the most requested accessories in the period from the Immaculate Conception to the end of the year: it's worth organising early.
For commercial spaces, outdoor seating areas and venues — Neon signs with plexiglass frame are the most practical solution: compact formats, ease of positioning, low consumption. Lotti chandeliers, certified for outdoor use, are suitable for terraces and outdoor seating areas of bars and restaurants. For supplies of multiple pieces, L'Arcolaio also handles B2B projects: contact the shop for an assessment. Have a look also at Preziosa Home for complementary Christmas decorative solutions.
For the children's bedroom or nursery — Choose WD LifeStyle signs in compact formats (23×13 cm) or battery-powered Tono Su Tono wooden bases: no fixed cables, compact dimensions, LEDs with soft light.
For an original gift — Neon signs in plexiglass can be easily packaged and chosen based on the recipient's personality. Vimin Box's LED acrylic hearts have an immediate visual impact. For a more complete gift display, also browse the proposals from Tono Su Tono, which includes candles and matching vases.
Power: batteries or mains? — Tono Su Tono themed decorations and the Vimin Box heart run on batteries: completely portable. Mirrors and neon signs require a USB socket or mains electricity. Lotti chandeliers and Ad Trend fountains require a fixed electrical socket. Consider the positioning before choosing.

FAQ
Do plexiglass neon signs consume a lot of electricity?
No. The neon effect is achieved with LEDs, not traditional neon gas. Consumption is very low, there is no overheating and the lifespan is longer than gas signs. They can be left on for many hours without worry.
Can Lotti chandeliers stay outdoors all year round?
They are certified for outdoor and indoor use. The frame is in painted metal and the transformer is of the SELV type (extra low voltage safety). It is recommended to avoid direct exposure to prolonged heavy rain.
Do Ad Trend electric fountains require maintenance?
Yes, but it is simple: periodic cleaning of the water circuit to avoid limescale deposits and topping up the level when necessary. The use of distilled water is recommended. Integrated LEDs do not require any work.
Can I combine multiple luminous decorations in the same room?
Yes. The practical suggestion is to maintain consistency in colour temperature: pair elements all in warm tones (warm whites, yellows, oranges) or all in cool tones (cool whites, blues, pinks). A chandelier as the main focal point plus one or two smaller LED mirrors or signs works well in a living room or entrance. Vary the sizes to create a natural visual hierarchy.
Are these decorations suitable as Christmas gifts?
Yes. Neon signs in plexiglass, LED acrylic hearts by Vimin Box and Tono Su Tono metal cactus can be easily packaged and have an immediate visual impact. They are suitable for birthdays, housewarming celebrations and end-of-year gifts.
