Stylish Kitchen Wall Lights

From work surfaces to islands and kitchen sinks, we all have areas in this room that could do with some more targeted lighting. A stylish and functional solution? A Jim Lawrence Wall Light. Our kitchen wall lights come in a range of painted, warm brass and copper tones and cool metallic finishes to suit every style of home. We’ve highlighted 6 bestselling kitchen wall light designs to showcase the range of interior styles our lighting can accommodate.

If you don’t have space for several types of lighting, we suggest trying our adjustable wall lights for areas that need a bright direct lift. Our Aldgate Wall Light is an industrial inspired design that makes a bold statement in contemporary home after a retro look. It has an adjustable head, so can light as much or as little of the area as needed. Browse through our Spotlights and Wall Lights to find more easy to manoeuvre, adjustable lighting.

We love this styling from @farringtons_design, using our softer Clay finish which blends beautifully with the chalky paint of her kitchen. You can see more of this beautiful property in our interview with designer Sarah here.

Our Antiqued Brass Salthouse Wall Light goes hand in hand with this rich Navy kitchen from @weirdandwebb. A Jim Lawrence take on industrial lighting styles from the 50s and 60s, the Salthouse is a small but statement kitchen wall light perfect for tasking. We recommend pairing this retro inspired light with an oversized bulb for maximum effect.⁠⁠

What the dainty Salthouse lacks in size it makes up for in character. With its simple lines, spun metal shade and tilting head that can move through 90 degrees, this light packs a stylish punch despite its dainty proportions. Choose from Antiqued Brass, Matt Black, Clay and Slate Grey to best complement your interior no matter the wall colour.

The Club: our most sought after Wall Light. A firm favourite of our wide clientele, the Club Wall Light is a staple for many homes no matter the style. The swan neck arm and spun shade blends into a variety of decors, spanning many architectural eras and always popping against any colour scheme.⁠ This fresh but homely kitchen from @the_dormer_window_house is a prime example of how instantly at home the Club lights can be, adding instant warmth and character to tasking areas.
⁠
We’ve created a range of perfect partners for the Club Wall Light, with some daintier alternatives if you adore the look but are short on space. Our highly skilled metal workers have created a whole family of products with timeless quality, all available to be used in your gorgeous interiors. ⁠If you are loyal to the Club family and want to find an addition to your lighting collection, join the club and take a peek at our Pendant version, the Flush Mount Ceiling Light and our brand new Club Plug-in Wall Light.

This is our Fisher Wall Light, adding a subtle and gently diffused warmth to the interior of @warehouse_townhouse. Dark walls and brass are a no brainer when it comes to adding a quality lustre to your moody, industrial inspired interior. With its slightly opaque, fluted glass shade, it has a touch of Art Deco about it that will suit a contemporary setting as much as a traditional one. Effortlessly versatile, our Fisher lends itself to any sized wall, looking equally good on its own in a small space or hung in a row in a large one. Also available in Matt Black, Nickel and Plain Ivory.

Traditionally styled and hand crafted, the Curtis combines the practicality of a spotlight with the beauty of our Club Wall Light with which it shares a similar spun shade.⁠ The Curtis is ideally suited as a down lighter for your kitchen, bedroom or living room, particularly charming used to highlight shelving.
⁠
This magnificent kitchen belongs to @vickiejoneshome, who has styled her spotlight as a downlighter for her carefully curated kitchen corner. Its rustic finish and exposed braided cable gives it a retro feel which is perfect for modern country kitchens. Featuring a head that can be angled through 90 degrees and rotated through 350 degrees, this means you can focus your light wherever you need it most.


Proof that brass really does sing against a multitude of colours, and testament to the beauty of handblown glass, this really is the perfect period kitchen for the modern home from @lundandlaw. You too can brighten up your home with one of our eye-catching, hand crafted Putney Wall Lights in our wonderfully reflective glass and metal for a country modern look to kitchen diner. With its elegantly curved swan neck and hand blown glass shade, the transparent quality allows you to enjoy its reflective hues without losing any sense of space. Glass shades are wodnerful for kitchen wall lights as this in an area that can often feel quite busy. Click here for our guide to glass cleaning to make sure they are always looking as good as new.
