Lightship Neon

07/28/2026

Did you catch us on WRAL last night? If you missed seeing the show when it aired live, you can still check it out online! We loved having Scott and Sean in our shop to show them all the ways we can bend glass with fire and light it up.

A neon sign company in Raleigh has more than enough energy to light up the city.

Sneak peek of the neon sign we're creating for The Gables Raleigh. After years of driving by the property on Wake Forest Rd, we're so excited to be part of lighting it up once again!

We do a lot of business by email and by phone, but sometimes there's no substitute for coming into the shop in person to see all the colors, lights, and effects we can create with neon tubing. We loved hosting the team from The Gables Raleigh as we reviewed color choices for their soon-to-be-iconic roadside sign.

The Gables has long marked old US Highway 1 with a neon sign, an original YELLOW GABLES version and a later version that remained up until recently. Our design team had so much fun stopping by Lightship Neon in Raleigh to talk neon next steps...
