Introducing The New Cottage Glass Lighting Collection & More…

Inspired by the diversity of your own homes, we’ve curated an exquisite new collection of smaller wall, pendant and flush fitting ceiling lights in bright and airy glass. Always aiming to cater for everyone, with these designs we had smaller homes in mind, embracing contemporary cottage styling with space-saving at the fore.

Suited to daintier rooms where you still wish to utilise statement lighting for key areas like breakfast bars, hallways and those awkward but charming nooks throughout the home; this collection proves that functionality and beauty can go hand in hand.

THE HUDSON WALL & PENDANT LIGHTS

Bring the beautifully reflective quality of glass to your home with our fabulous new Hudson Wall and Pendant Lights – the latest addition to our growing family of hand-blown glass lighting.


A perfect marriage of modern and vintage style, the Hudsons are handsome as a pair or on their own, but always striking with their shallow glass shades.

THE SHOREDITCH PENDANT LIGHTS

With its traditional lamp holder and bell jar glass shade, our Shoreditch Pendant has a pared-back appearance that evokes the feel of loft-style living and will appeal to those wanting a clean, contemporary look to their home. Well suited to a small or narrow space and ideal for tasking, try hanging the Shoreditch in a row of three for maximum visual impact.

Please welcome….

THE HARBOUR OUTDOOR WALL LIGHT

A nautical outdoor wall light with a touch of industrial chic, the Harbour Outdoor Wall Light is the latest addition to our Outdoor Lighting Collection. The little brother to our award-winning Bulkhead, the Harbour incorporates many of the same design elements, wrapped up in a smaller package.

The Harbour is designed as a discreet exterior wall light for smaller spaces in a porch or garden. Roughly a third the size of its bigger brother – the Bulkhead – it will look wonderful fitted on its own, as a pair either side of a door or entrance, or in a row along a courtyard wall or fence.

FLUSH CEILING LIGHTS


Continuing our challenge to create versatile lighting that can be personalised by you, we have designed a new Flush Mount Ceiling Rose in our best-selling antiqued brass finish that you can purchase on its own, pair with a fabric pendant shade of your choice, or buy supplied with some of our most popular pendant shades….

Choose our elegant brass Club, Barbican and Large Balmoral Flush Fitting Lights to introduce a touch of warm metallic tones to your scheme, or select our beautifully reflective glass Fisher and Shotley shades for a bright and airy appearance. For a truly individual look, why not match your ceiling mount with one of our exquisite, fabric pendant shades that are all handmade at our Suffolk workshops.

Enhancing arhcitectural nooks and alcoves with cleverly positioned lighting is very effective in embracing the quirks of a smaller home whilst making the room feel lighter.


Whether you want to extend your existing family of Jim Lawrence lights by matching a flush mount to wall lights or pendants, or bring in some warm metal tones into the home for the first time, these lights are perfect for daintier homes with lower ceilings.

These designs allow you to enjoy the best of our quality craftmanship without compromising on space. If you have little room for a cable drop but want to highlight an island, for example, these flush lights can work in two’s or three’s to illuminate the area just as beautifully as their pendant equivalent.
