f rom t he ed itor AT THE CUE FASHION SHOOT for this issue (P. 27), nine team members stood in a dusty warehouse studio inspecting a model for a loose hair, uneven hemline or strained expression. The shutter clicked as our photographer tried to capture her at the right moment, so she’d appear suspended in midair. She’d been leaping for some time but managed to look serene.

“You can stop if you get tired,” I almost said. Then I remembered Amanda Kostreva is a ballet dancer fresh from four years dancing with a Boston company. She probably could jump for hours. Kostreva started ballet when she was 3 and never stopped. She and her fellow dancers wore their hair in updos so tight they swallowed ibuprofen to dull the resulting headaches. She moved to New Orleans this year to teach ballet to first-graders because she was tired of spending all day “staring at myself in a mirror.”

But staring was all I could do when she danced. I’d never been close enough to hear the satin-muted rapping of pointe

shoes on floorboards. What is it like, I wondered, to leave the stage behind? Luckily for me, Kostreva answers that question in her blog (www.amandakostreva.wordpress.com).

“Like when I was dancing, my days now are marked by moments of feeling a love so great that I can’t fully understand it, and by defeats and failures that shake my core,” she writes.

“Dance has taught me … not to be afraid of the risks and pain that any love includes in its kaleidoscope.”

Brava, ballerina!

Bevolo opens a museum to celebrate 70 years in business.

BY K ATIE WA LENTER

IT’S A SUBTLE BUT ICONIC PART OF THE NEW ORLEANS LANDSCAPE: the warm glow flickering inside patinaed copper lanterns adorning French Quarter streets, shops, courtyards, Garden District mansions and Creole cottages.

“A gas light is the jewelry on a house,” says Drew Bevolo, third-generation owner of Bevolo Gas & Electric Lights (521 Conti St., 504-522-9485; www.bevolo.com).

Bevolo recently opened a museum and workshop at 318 Royal St., where, on one recent morning, craftsman Jeb Harrison was hand-riveting a lantern bound for Texas.

A new timeline on the workshop walls tells the history of gas lights and how they came to New Orleans.

Drew’s grandfather, Andrew Bevolo Sr., opened his French Quarter metal repair shop in 1945, 20 days after the end of World War II. He had worked as a riveter on helicopters and airplanes for Sikorsky Aircraft Corp. and Higgins Industries, which built landing craft and boats for the military.

When an early customer brought him a London street light to repair, he came up with the idea to hand-rivet lights instead of soldering them, and that is how Bevolo constructs its lights today.

In 1790, the English company Coke gas premiered the world’s first gas lighting system in London. Gas lighting was imported to the United States in the 1830s, starting with Baltimore and Philadelphia.

“New Orleans came shortly thereafter in the 1830s, but we had a more extensive gas lights system,” Drew says. “We lit theaters and other places inside. The French Opera House in New Orleans had a chandelier with 2,000 gas burners that was 40 feet in diameter.”

In the late 1880s, New Orleans converted street lighting systems to electric as technology changed, but gas lights remained.

The French Quarter lantern that is recognized worldwide has decorated the city since the 1940s.

A. Hays Town, the renowned Louisiana architect, designed this signature lantern — based on several existing New Orleans styles — for one of his projects, now the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.

But he needed someone to build it.

“He’s walking the streets of New Orleans after dark one night and he hears ‘tap, tap, tap’ — my grandfather is working,” Drew says. “Mr. Town stuck his head in the door, and said, ‘Hey mister, can you make a light fixture?’ And my grandfather says, ‘If you can draw it, I can make it.’ They made the original French Quarter light fixture that night.”

The combination of Town’s lantern design and Bevolo’s ingenious hand-riveting method

of construction created an enduring and cherished tradition.

Over time, the original crew of craftsmen dwindled. James Bevolo took over the company from his father.

“They didn’t really retrain and rehire, and it became a generational dead end,” Drew says. “You put an ad in the paper for a lighting craftsman or a coppersmith today, who’s going to answer it? My uncle did a great job. He kept our business open, kept it alive until he could hand it off to me.”

Drew joined his uncle in the business in 1992 after working as a stockbroker. “We got together and I said I didn’t want the business to go away, so I redid the brochure and I answered the phone, took orders, called a few architects, and really grassroots started one at a time,” he says.

Under James’ training, Drew learned the entire process of handcrafting lights.

“I came down here and I made lights from scratch,” he says. “We made all the brackets, welded everything, sanded, painted. Someone would come in and say ‘I’ll buy a light’ and I had to go upstairs and make it. It takes two days to make a single fixture.”

He hired and trained new craftsmen and the lighting and design business grew steadily. Bevolo remains a family business. Drew’s son Christopher works at the main showroom on Conti Street. “Now we have 500 different styles and combinations of J A N UA RY. 2 0 1 6 <<<

lights and brackets that we’ve evolved into our business over the years,” Drew says.

Despite the steady growth, the local manufacturing process remains the same. Every single light and lantern is made by hand in New Orleans.

“These guys are making lights exactly the same way I did: same equipment, same tooling, same hand-riveting,” Drew says.

“It makes a difference in quality.

“Each Bevolo light starts out as raw copper, then after it is hand-riveted together, it is oxidized so that the appearance is that of antique copper. ... We want to control the aging of copper from inception. We make it [look] 15 to 20 years old. From there it will age gracefully. We want our lights to look like they’ve always been on the house.

“We make 300-year lights. The copper we use is the purest copper. It’s smelted and made in the United States. The burners we make are lifetime burners. We take care of our lights.” Drew adds that the lights can be found on houses and businesses in all 50 U.S. states and 47 other countries.

Bevolo also makes electric lights. The Bevolo Collection at 316 Royal St. also offers table and floor lamps, chandeliers, sconces and furniture made with recycled wood and forged iron. Next door at the museum, visitors can see how it is done.

“The point of the museum is to show people these are the lights we make and here is how we make them,” Drew says. “We cut the copper by hand, with hand shears and foot shears. We don’t use any automated equipment at all. I’ve never compromised the integrity of what we do. That’s why you see the workshop. That’s something I want to share generationally. I want to give this place back to the French Quarter and the people, so we can share what we do and that’s not lost.”

BY MISSY WILKINSON

In her new book, Urban Revolutions, Emilie Bahr offers advice for female bike commuters.

FIRST, THE GOOD NEWS: NEW ORLEANS RANKS FIFTH among large cities for numbers of bike commuters, according to census data. The not so good news? Only 25 percent of those cyclists are female, according to urban planner Emilie Bahr. She hopes to change that with her new book, Urban Revolutions (Microcosm Publishing).

“The [gender] gap is not universal, and I wondered why that is,” says Bahr, a Louisiana native who explored factors that influence bike transportation in her urban planning thesis. “I think women face legit obstacles in the way of appearance and dress, but part of it is we don’t conceive of the possibilities until we do it. And we don’t have great role models.”

Bahr began biking in 2007 and wrote the book as a how-to guide and why-to manifesto, sprinkling essays about her own experience as a bicyclist among practical advice ranging from how to ride in traffic and what to wear to work to how to handle street harrassment.

“I wanted to provide a book that would address the whole host of issues women face and provide them with inspiration,” she says.

Bahr says bike commuting makes her happy and helps her squeeze physical activity into a busy day.

“I listen to my co-workers complain about how they have to go to spin class after work,” Bahr says. “When you see how much physical activity you get in, it makes the argument for bike commuting. ... It’s really powerful once you try it out.”

Urban Revolutions, $11.99 at Microcosm Publishing.

“Opulent body bronzing lotion is the perfect ‘lazy girl’ bronzing lotion. Apply it to your arms when you take your blazer off and use a baby wipe to get the excess off your hands.

There’s no streaking, because it’s a tinted moisturizer that rinses off in the shower. Plus, its coconut and lime scent smells amazing.”

300-1000 Canal St.

BY MISSY WILKINSON

Garland-bedecked streetcars, whimsical window displays and decorated palm trees — holiday shopping destinations don’t get much more festive than Canal Street.

Adler’s

(722 Canal St.) This chandelier-decorated store contains enough fine jewelry, china and gifts to rival a fireworks display for oohs and ahs elicited by passersby.

BARONNE ST.

CARONDELET ST.

The Ritz- Carlton Spa

(921 Canal St.) Frazzled holiday shoppers can unwind with a luxury spa trip to the Ritz-Carlton. (P.S. Louisiana residents get 20 percent off Monday through Thursday.)

CANAL ST.

ST. CHARLES AVE.

.

P ST CAM

Rubensteins

(102 St. Charles Ave.) The grandaddy of men’s clothing retailers in New Orleans, Rubensteins holds a storewide sale with discounts of 25 to 40 percent through January. As always, there’s free valet parking and gift wrapping.

Art of Shaving

(624 Canal St.) This shave emporium shares a mission with neighboring Rubensteins: elevate a gentleman’s style to dapper levels. You’ll find grooming products, French-milled soap, fragrances and a wet-shave station at this New Yorkbased chain.

Palace Cafe

(605 Canal St.) A newly renovated second floor and rum-focused bar offer an opulent place to take a load off while dining on contemporary Creole fare. Or sit at a sidewalk table and people-watch.

The Shops at Canal Place

(333 Canal St.) Holiday window displays, like this one at Anthropologie, are one reason to hit the Shops at Canal Place, which holds SHOPAHOLIDAYS from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 10 with cocktails, photos with Santa, wrapping stations, sales, live music and gift consultations by ALG Style.
