BRAND NEW | Plug In Wall Lights Made By Jim Lawrence

Say hello to the first ever Plug In Wall Lights made by Jim Lawrence.

These lights feature our bestselling solid brass and handblown glass shade designs fitted with a plug and in-line switch so you can achieve the Jim Lawrence look straight from the box without the worry of internal wiring. The new plug in collection will suit any style of house but are particularly useful in older homes with quirky wall space or in rented properties where installing quality light fittings can be challenging.

Not only do plug in wall lights enhance your room with a statement look, but they free up space for all your favourite things where a table lamp might normally reside. Place either side of a bed for instant reading light, above a desk or kitchen counter for general tasking light or in any dark nook or cranny that needs brightening up in an instant.

A NEW TAKE ON OUR CLASSICS

Choose from four of our bestselling wall light designs for a sculptural, statement look. These four designs are influenced by our popular vintage styling but adapted with all the perks of contemporary design. The Club, Carrick, Brooke  and Scallop are staples in our catalogue, each versatile enough to blend into modern and period homes alike.

The Club Plug-in Wall Light has a neat, vintage appeal that will add character to any setting and features a spun brass shade that acts as a downlighter, producing a lovely pool of light for a subdued atmosphere in a large room or focused light for tasking in a kitchen, bedroom, study or utility.

A clever and versatile wall sconce with a neat, unfussy presence, the Carrick Plug-in Wall Light design pairs the Club Wall Light’s brass arm with a fabric shade of your choice allowing you to style it as you like. A wonderful choice for bedsides and reading nooks.

The plug in Brooke can be styled as you like with a lampshade of your choice and has a neat, unfussy presence that sits comfortably in modern and period homes alike. Pair it with one of our 20cm French Drum or Cylinder Shades or a 25cm Empire Shade for a bright, uniform output that is great for washing your walls with ambient lighting.

One of our more sculptural wall lights, the Scallop has become increasingly popular as a bedside light or where it is used to bring subtle statement lighting to a living or dining room.

STRIKING HANDBLOWN GLASS PLUG IN WALL LIGHTS

Bring the beauty of handblown glass to bedrooms and living areas with the Comtpon and Putney Plug-in Wall Lights. Both designs feature an elegant, curved swan neck arm with the choice of a clear or fluted shade, offering strong overall light output for tasking without losing out on all-important ambience.

From our much loved Fulbourn family of lights, the Putney has an elegant, curved swan neck arm and fluted glass shade. It has an airy, transparent quality that allows you to enjoy its reflective hues without losing any sense of space.

From our popular family of Holborn lights, the Compton is a contemporary classic that would suit a modern space as much as a country cottage and has great overall light output for tasking as well as to create a lovely ambient mood in any room in your home. 

THE HANSON LIBRARY LIGHT

The latest addition to our family of Hanson wall lights, this clever brass wall sconce is designed with a single hinged arm for easy mobility.

One of  the daintier designs in the collection, the plug in Hanson Library Light has a narrow, deep, rectangular backplate that is ideal for fitting onto shelves, storage units or those dark nooks and crannies where internal wiring doesn’t reach.
