Just a stones throw from our Suffolk headquarters in the nearby village of Layham you will find the aptly name ‘Marquis’. Both noble and luxurious, the Marquis is a go-to for fine dining and distinctive accommodation. Overlooking the sloping Brett Valley you can enjoy contemporary British food and drinks in their stylish bar: a perfect place to get a feel for what East Anglia has to offer.

Inside the historic Marquis – a building that has sat proudly in this location for centuries – you will find understated yet charming modern country décor, sprinkled with your favourite Jim Lawrence products. Amongst the beams, original fireplaces and stunning views are a multitude of our finest shades, lights and accessories to make your stay as stylish and authentic as possible.

You can never have enough bedroom inspiration, so here’s a closer look at our Double Gosford Wall Light bringing a soft bedside glow to one of the suites. Bringing a compact, handmade elegance to this modern country scheme, its hand forged solid brass design with low slung curved arms is perfect for framing the most important part of a bedroom: the bed. The Beeswax finish is paired tastefully with our Natural Isabelle Linen Candle Shades for a laid back neutral look.

For something more slimline and simple without compromising on elegance, the Double Classic Wall Light is the perfect choice for complimenting period features. We love the contrast between the sumptous velvet headboard and the hard, more rustic style of this classic blackplate. Again, the natural shades create a subdued glow to add to the calming hotel atmosphere. 

Love velvet? Why not take a look at our Hunstanton range including cushions, shades and fabric by the metre – perfect for inviting some plush texture and jewel tones into your interior.

In order to create an authentic feel in character buildings, we feel it’s best to stay in keeping with their historic charm when it comes to detailing. Using traditionally hand forged hinges, handles and bolts creates a uniform look that helps guests to feel like they’ve taken a step back in time whilst still enjoying the modern comforts on offer. 

To add a textural quality and warmth, turning to Antiqued Brass with our collection of handcrafted cupboard knobs, drawer pulls and kitchen cabinet handles is the way  to go. Our beautifully forged fixtures and fittings help to bring the room together with robust materials that show off our classic modern country style.

Our outside lights will transform the look of any garden, entrance or outbuildings, making the most of architectural features and the natural beauty of your building materials. From period splendour or simple country cottage styles we have a wide selection of outdoor lights to suit a variety of locations. Here the Marquis have included a nautical touch by using our award winning, vintage-look Boathouse Light in Matt Black.

Another nautical inspired piece, this antiqued brass number is a little more industrial. The Ship’s Light has a robust, hand blown glass shade encompassed in a brass cage that is reminiscent of the deck lights you used to find on ocean liners and steam boats. It is also incredibly versatile, making it an excellent choice for adding some coastal charm inside the house too.

If you are coming to visit our showroom then why not stop at The Marquis on your way? With spectacular views across the valley, a bold open kitchen and a seasonal menu inspired by local ingredients, dining at the Marquis is a unique and memorable experience. Book a stay to fully enjoy our local area, and relax in their stylish setting.

The cosy season is here, and autumnal colours are back on the agenda. Expect to see opulent jewel tones that fade into spiced hues of cinnamon and nutmeg, thick drapes of velvet and wool, plus warm brass accents and accessories ready to ease you into your autumn/winter interior.

We’ve highlighted our favourite Jim Lawrence products to layer up for the season, ensuring your home is not only in style, but ready to truly enjoy as you spend more time inside of it this autumn.

Thinking of using bright reds in the home can seem quite severe, but when autumn comes around dark and faded variations of this bold colour are elegant and a perfect fit for modern rustic homes. Working beautifully with metallic finishes, our Old Red Faux Silk Candle Shades are a great match paired with the Antiqued Brass Double Brancaster Wall Light. Earthy spiced tones are certainly on trend, but can be translated in softer ways like muted and dusky yellows and oranges if you prefer something a little more mellow. Try these shades in our Bark Satin for a deep nutmeg colour, or a Dull Gold Faux Silk for a gilded touch.

You will be familiar with our popular Antiqued Brass finish, but we are always finding new ways to style and use it. On-trend brass adds a subtle shine to minimal spaces and warmth to neutral rooms, and this can be done so seamlessly with simple but effective additions. We’ve chosen to highlight the gorgeous yet sturdy Peterhouse Desk Lamp, which embraces the classic bankers lamp style but made for modern life. Hand cast in solid brass, this little lamp is ideal for home offices, bedsides and console tables to lift autumnal evenings with its warm glow.

If you want to layer up this finish upon your existing Jim Lawrence lights, accessorising throughout the room creates a cohesive look. These sweet Larder Pulls truly suit any room of the house, thanks to its understated character and design. Try fitting them to any kitchen, bedroom or living room cabinet, chest of drawers or cupboard to instantly boost the vintage charm.

You can’t have autumn without woollen accessories. Our heritage collection is layered with traditional tweeds in granites, checks and heathers: a selection of beautifully textured wool fabrics for your country curtains and cushions. We’ve highlighted the soft Stirling Lovat Wool in Check, a fabric exclusively woven for Jim Lawrence by ‘the home of tweed’ at the Lovat Mill. This predominantly grey colourway is ideal for this time of year, evoking September strolls along the Scottish landscape of rivers and lochs. The 100% wool weight of this fabric is a dream for curtains, framing windows with a sloping drape and lined to see you through winter.

No house is complete without our little Samworth Oil Lamp. No matter your home style, this hand blown glass oil lamp features a hint of brass, and sits comfortably on bedsides, consoles or just about anywhere you like it, really! You can refill it too, allowing you to enjoy its flickering flame across all four seasons.

With our focus on natural materials, it’s only right to include some foliate decoration! Dried flowers and leaves give off an antiqued feel of their own, with a crisp golden ‘patina’ that is both seasonal and pretty in autumnal décor. Softer than vibrant bouquets, wheat, pampas grass and hydrangeas create a delicate arrangement perfect for vintage-inspired homes. Why not add in some poppy pods and cotton for some height? They’re low maintenance and go hand in hand with all of our golden and spiced seasonal tones.

September is with us and there’s already a hint of chill in the air that was absent just days before. We’re looking forward to embracing autumn and the cosy late afternoons and evenings that are to unfold with the season. Think golden September sunsets, rummaging for last years knitwear, dimming the lights and bonfire smoke in the distance. Autumn in the country can prove mulchy, frosty and sometimes damp, but when your home is prepared you’ll be ready to hunker down and enjoy the season at its finest.

This gorgeous exposed brick room started its life as Jim’s old bull pen at the farm. Now designed as a sitting room or snug, it was vital to layer this rustic space with pools of light from different sources to ensure it radiated comfort and calm. Balancing the traditional and contemporary in a modern rustic interior is important for creating a sphere of cosiness when the autumnal nights draw in.

Choosing hand-forged iron detailing creates a pared back look, combining the old and new for a stylish modern rustic interior.  Authenticity is key in a 17th century building like this, which is where our traditionally forged iron comes into play. The Single Edgeware Spotlight in Antiqued Brass was designed as a stylish and functional solution to boost the lighting in specific areas of your room, particularly useful in hard-to-reach areas of period homes like these beams. Our Edgeware Spotlight incorporates an elegant brass shade with an exposed braided cable that gives it a cool industrial look.

The Bulkhead Outdoor Light is a handsome, retro-style garden wall light with a robust and practical styling that is reminiscent of shipping and industrial days gone by. There’s no reason you can’t enjoy it indoors too, and we knew it was our first choice to pair with the original exposed bricks. Hand cast in solid, natural brass, this light has a wonderful weighty quality that adds warmth and texture to your walls – bolstering the modern rustic feel.

A hinged design that fits into the floor, this 2 Gang Floor Socket is the dreamy modern rustic detail you might not have thought of. A great solution when you don’t want wires stretching around the room. Making a feature out of the quirks of period homes is often the best way to enjoy them!

A Matt Black or Beeswax finish ensures clean lines and stylish silhouettes, celebrating the traditional use of metalwork in Great British country homes. The Harrington Wall Light is practical and stylish in its simplicity, sitting close to the wall and creating interest with it’s circular detailing. Paired with a Half Shade in Pewter Killowen Linen, this light is strong against the bright white walls when framed by beams. A perfect tether between the styling of new and old.

The slim architectural lines of our Cromer Console Table helps to balance the warm and cool tones of the room, providing ample space to rest your hot drinks or glasses of wine..

A must have autumn/winter accessory, the Chappel Log Basket is just right for your hearthside firewood. Sturdy and supplied in our durable matt black finish, it’s a staple for homes with wood burners and fireplaces. With the dimmers in place and resting on our soft cushions, the added glow of a real log burner is sure to help you unwind on blustery evenings.

Before we say goodbye to Summer, we thought we’d visit our favourite interior style of the moment: “the refined bohemian” home. We have long been enamoured by the beach house look of flowing linen curtains framing a sea view, worn wooden panelled shacks and woven rope and wood accessories. It’s modern rustic at its finest, with a more refined and translatable look that can be worked into homes everywhere. It’s laid back but carefully curated, it’s minimal but with a homely, vintage-inspired edge. It’s new and old in perfect harmony. We’ve selected six of our favourite customer photographs and a few of our own that we think exude refined bohemia, Jim Lawrence style…

We thought we’d kick start this look with a spotlight on our Scallop Wall Lights in Antiqued Brass. Adding an instant update of coastal character, this light has been carefully designed to combine a decorative shade with a subdued backlight, perfect for creating mood lighting in a bedroom, study, cloakroom or open plan living space.

This eye-catching piece was inspired by Jim & Sheena’s holidays to the West Coast of Scotland, where fresh scallops were always on the menu and finding shells on the beach when the children were young was a favourite past time. Lovingly hand forged from solid natural brass that has been lightly antiqued for a subtly aged look, our Scallop has a wonderfully tactile quality that befits its handmade nature.

We couldn’t compile this list without mentioning our favourite stylist Sally Denning. Sally’s latest book ‘Relaxed Coastal’ style was published last year, and has paved the way for neutral toned, modern rustic interiors everywhere. We love this shot featuring our Butler and Barbican pendants. They are right at home against a backdrop of rugged stripped and painted wood with textured blankets. The perfect palette to kick start your relaxed yet refined décor. To find out more about Sally’s gorgeous book, read our blog post about it here.

This bathroom from Kay at @kinship_creativedc embodies our experience of refined bohemian style. Made up of only sustainably or locally sourced items, Kay shows how you can BE a refined bohemian as well as create a room that shows off the style. The light she’s used is our Compton Pendant in Antiqued Brass, blending gorgeously into the earthy colours of this bathroom. The Moroccan-inspired tiles exude the cool Eastern look – a fun alternative to regular metro tiles. Using reclaimed and quality local items will help you keep an eco ethos whilst renovating. It’s amazing what you can achieve.

Customer Maddy from @hutchinson.house has nailed chic bohemian living with her impeccably curated but laid back, comfortably styled home. We love the drama of matt black throughout, offsetting the creamy white and warm teak woods of her beachside home. The Club Wall Light in Matt Black is the perfect lighting choice here: lighting up the shelving display when on, and looking like one of the ornaments when off. Layering rugs and blankets also ramps up the ‘lived in’ feel, making sure it’s all living room, not showroom.

This kitchen space is from Sian of @restored_home. Neutrals, monochrome, leather and rustic woods are all woven though Sian’s home, and when you add in rattan baskets and our brass lighting you’ve got one stylish interior. Using our Thorpe Wall Light and Pendant Lampholders, Sian uses vintage look bulbs to give an industrial edge to her laid back living spaces. In our Beautiful Homes interview, she said: “It’s a good contrast against the elegance of Georgian homes and the rustic nature of country/cottage homes, without being too harsh and conflicting. It also means that the lights and fittings speak for themselves and you can then use other soft furnishings to introduce pattern and texture.” See more of her décor and read the interview here.

Wooden panelling, natural wood and brass make a gorgeous and tactile trio. Our popular Bletchley Bathroom Collection encapsulates a simple, old-fashioned utility style that blends seamlessly with both period and contemporary bathrooms. Ideal for your refined beach style interior, the lightly antiqued finish adds warmth to light spaces, it’s made with modern rustic, refined bohemia in mind.

As far as we’re concerned, a bedroom should embody beauty whilst maintaing a soothing and calming atmosphere. With the right balance of lighting, accessories and personal touches, you can transform any bedroom into somthing luxurious as well as comfortable. You might be familiar with this beautiful room after seeing our Suffolk Barn Renovation. We thought you might like a closer look, and to learn our three best tips for creating a restful space in your own bedroom at home…

Whilst our Harleston Lamps add a soothing glow to snooze by, useful task lighting from our carefully positioned  Edgeware Spotlights and Holt Wall Lights offer stronger directional light for those evenings curled up with a good book or magazine. Finding a balance with different layers of light is crucial when developing a relaxed space, so that you can alter the light outputs depending on your mood and the time of day. These Antiqued Brass designs bring a warmth to an otherwise cool-toned room. Again, finding a balance in the colour scheme is also key…

Another way to balance lighting and enjoy a sense of calm is with candles. If you don’t want the hassle of wax and want to opt for something longer lasting, our Samworth Oil Lamp will do the trick. Hand blown here in Suffolk, the fluted glass lamp catches light and reflections while the antique brass topper gives it an elegant finish.

That’s right. If more gaudy tones make you feel relaxed, we’re all for it! But personally gentler natural hues are what does it for us. Here we’ve paired deep blue-greys like the Pewter Satin French Drum Shades, with lighter tones to soften the presence of the beams and create a sense of serenity and calm. We’ve chosen deeper grey fabrics on the bed to add depth and a sense of cosiness to an otherwise light space. The curtains are a bespoke cottage pleat design by us, made with the Stirling Lovat Wool fabric. These help the small window still feel light and open, but they can be lined or even interlined to keep out the morning sun. Using colours from a similar palette gives you a timeless and classic feel, ensuring a consistent look when you start building up with accessories like cushions and throws.

Sometimes less is more. Soft furnishings and home accessories are what you will actually use in the room, so it’s important you get these spot on. A bedside table is just what you need to hold a morning cup of something to ease you ino your day, as well as a platform for your essential bedside lighting. We chose the sleek Cromer Beside Table here, adding a touch of industrial-chic to an otherwise modern country look. When it comes to soft furnishings, pairing cushions and blankets adds texture and of course comfort. For a similar look, try the Hunstanton Velvet in Navy…

Subtle accessorising can also apply to your hardware. Matching sockets and switches to lighting creates a cohesive and considered look. Details do matter, and often it’s the smaller things in a room that ensure the overall space looks its best. All Jim Lawrence products are made using traditional metal working techniques and are hand finished to the very highest standards here at our Suffolk workshop, so every part of your room will exude quality no matter how big or small.

We’ve been enjoying some bursts of gorgeous sunshine in the UK lately, and with longer days and lighter nights sometimes we feel the need to shed our home décor skin and brighten up what’s indoors too. We thought we would share our favourite ‘quick fix’ tips for turning your home into a stylish and seasonal utopia, Jim Lawrence style…

When you’re so in love with your Jim Lawrence light but feel the need for a change, a new shade will do the trick. Linen is a summer fabric go-to for clothes, duvets, cushions…you name it! It is sometimes overlooked as a lampshade fabric – but not by us. Shown on our Double Shell Wall Light in Antiqued Brass, two Candle Shades in Cream Killowen Linen contrasts with the ages brass, updating the light to a more contemporary style.

Pictured above is our 40cm Empire Shade in Pale Green Faux Silk, another soft pastel alternative with a little pop of colour for your modern country lighting.

For a little pattern, our Longford Gingham Cushion Covers (above) will bring in some cool country charm. For a plain colour but with added texture, the Waterford Pure Linen Cushions would look stunning in an Off White or Vintage Pink.

If you’re not ready to let go of your soft, plush velvets from the winter then don’t fear, our Dusky Pink and Mole cushion covers in Hunstanton Velvet will satisfy your craving for something with more volume.

We imagine you’re doing this already, but we don’t mean literally. We believe in embracing your windows and window accessories, letting even more light flow in by using lightweight pale fabrics. Open up your space with white or lighter toned colours to lift the room and highlight your poles and finials. With curtains like these you can enjoy the lighter days for longer, and they look ever so pretty in a gentle breeze!

Though more of a permanent fixture, ensuring your window accessories are up to scratch in the summer is important too. With curtains drawn and the fresh air coming in, a unique and personalised touch that comes from hand-made products ensures the view from your window will be beautifully enhanced, finishing the room off with style and sophistication.

Seasonal blooms are what makes the spring summer months so beautiful. There’s no better way to freshen up your interior than with the real deal: foliage! Our go-to plants and flowers are freshly cut from the garden at best, but at a close second you can turn to your local florist to spruce up the corners of your home lacking in colour. Whether you using tumbling philodendrons, delicate ferns or vibrant bunches and bouquets, layering with different heights and matching pots to your décor can be a really fun exercise. We love the faded terracotta against the timeworn walls and white-washed woodwork here, but the options are endless!

We make our aged brass lighting the Jim Lawrence way because we love them, but it’s always a treat when interior trends line up with our designs. We spotted an appreciation for ‘Real Brass’ in this gorgeous Apartment Therapy article. Of course trends ebb and flow, but our Antiqued Brass lighting is made to last, and once you choose our designs your love for them will last too.

“We are already seeing a bit of a trend toward new traditional interiors with classic lines and updated colors,” says Janet Lorusso of JRL Interiors. “This has already produced a return to real brass, not the fake lacquered shiny brass, in classic fixtures and chandeliers.” 

Of course you can opt for genuine vintage lighting for one-off designs, but with our specialist finish we offer you versatile new lighting made by hand using old techniques. So you get the best of both! When it comes to our brass lighting, we create our version of this traditional look by treating solid brass with an antiquing solution, which simply speeds up the natural tarnishing process. All Jim Lawrence lights are made using traditional metal working techniques and are hand finished to the very highest standards here at our Suffolk workshop, meaning the inside of our lights are as impeccable as their exterior.

Oversized lighting is growing in popularity as home décor gets bolder and braver. If your home has emphasised features (just like the exposed beams of our renovated Scotland Hall Barn) then ensure your ceiling lights don’t get lost in the room by choosing an upscaled statement design. These Leiston Pendants have a large, gently curved dome shade with a coordinating aged brass chain for a sturdy but chic industrial look.

Our Abercrombie Table Lamp has been designed with a heritage look that makes it as handsome when it is turned off as it does when it casts its pool of light across your countertop, bedside table or desk. It’s the perfect task light for further brightening areas that your pendants may not reach.

Incorporating a traditional spun brass shade and base with a contemporary steel stem, and featuring an exposed braided cable, the Abercrombie will sit as comfortably in a modern setting as it would a period one, while its Antiqued Brass finish works well with any colourway.

Where it might be difficult to install overhead lighting, wall lights are a fool proof go-to. The Club Wall Light is a neat, space-saving design with a period presence that produces a lovely pool of light for a subdued atmosphere in a large room. We do suggest layering both ceiling and wall lighting, ensuring you maintain a healthy balance of light. Our Antiqued Brass designs will bring a glowing warmth to your décor even when they’re switched off!

For a uniform look throughout your home, match your Antiqued Brass lighting with any of our stunning door and window furniture in the same finish, or with our range of matching electric switches and plugs. If you would prefer to create a contrast, see which other product finishes we offer.

Our Antiqued Brass products are created from natural, un-lacquered brass and will continue to age and develop a darker dull patina over time in your home. This is particularly hastened in harsh outdoor or damper environments. To decelerate this aging process we recommend regular polishing with a good quality brass polish and a soft cloth. Please note that chemical polishes can strip away the original antiquing solution too, so take care to use cleaning products sparingly to retain the aged look of the product.

Using elegant glass pendants or natural linen lampshades is a great way to subtly add task lighting into a dining space. With many of our designs you can do this without blocking your line of vision through the room. The table is the central gathering point in your dining space, and much like a kitchen island benefits from task lighting, this area does too. Here are a few of our favourite elegant pendant lighting ideas for the dining room…

We are often asked about the rules of island or dining pendants. In our opinion… create your own! You might think that oversized lampshades can’t be elegant, but our ‘Shared Space’ styling in our Suffolk Barn Renovation above uses large shades without letting them overpower the room. Instead they create a gently translucent light over the table, softening the heavy, rustic beams.

As in our Shared Space, you too can create lovely layers of light for a relaxed, easy atmosphere to share with friends and family by pairing generously sizes shades with the metallic hues of your light fittings. We supply 50cm of bronze braided cable with our Pendant Lampholders and a hand finished ceiling rose in natural brass that’s lightly antiqued, so you can be in charge of how high or low you suspend your shades.

Our Lovell Pendants hold their own and add character to the décor without looking clunky. They’re the perfect example of how to use lights that appear dainty and space saving, but say a lot more than an exposed bulb or single fitting. The glass shade fills your space without imposing on the rest of the room. We love that a small bit of Antiqued Brass is also exposed, and can be perfectly matched to other brass accessories like switches or sockets. Simple yet effective.

For a weightier, more industrial country style that still gives a more lightweight look than a full shade, the Foster is for you… A reeded, hand blown shade gives a softer touch, whilst the steadfastness of an Antiqued Brass chain ensures it makes a lasting statement in your room.

Architectural but slimline, the Barchester Double Pendant is a unique pendant that gives a little more than just installing two separate lights. The height of the cable is adjustable, making sure your get your pool of light to dine by just right. The natural candle shades and brass mimic the white walls and beams here, giving the décor that effortlessly cohesive feel.

For those will a smaller space to fill, the Bellingham Pendant is a nod to the ‘industrial luxe’ style whilst embracing simplicity. Its clear glass shade is cleverly suspended from three brass arms within its top, making a beautifully simple feature to fit over your dining area. Finish it off with a vintage-look LED Squirrel Bulb.

Last but not least…a Jim Lawrence favourite. The Greenwich Pendant features an oversized, hand blown fluted glass shade that plays with natural light in the most wonderful way, ensuring it catches your eye wherever it is hung. Pairing vintage style brass work with a modern glass shade gives the Greenwich a fabulous country modern feel without looking overbearing or out of place.

Jim and Sheena, his wife and business co-owner, began their married life here. The business they continue to build today has grown from humble roots at its kitchen table.  Over the last year Jim and Sheena have transformed this beautiful 17th century barn into a stunning modern rustic home away from home. Not only does it offer a taster of quintessential British country life, but of course the barn is the perfect backdrop to showcase our elegant lighting and home furnishings.

In our brand new spring mailer we invite you to explore each reimagined room, capturing Jim Lawrence modern country style at its finest…

Oversized cream linen shades create a gentle, translucent light over the dining table, softening the heavy framework of the beams in this spacious dining area. White furniture creates an almost weightless dining experience – perfect for late spring evenings and summer lunches.

Layering a sitting room or snug with pools of light from different sources creates a balanced sphere of cosiness for when the night draws in. With the dimmers in place and resting on our soft cushions, the added glow of a real log burner is sure to help you unwind.

Whilst our Harleston Lamps add a soothing glow to snooze by, useful task lighting from our carefully positioned  Edgeware Spotlights and Holt Wall Lights offer stronger directional light for those evenings curled up with a good book.

Our popular Bletchley Bathroom Collection encapsulates a simple, old-fashioned utility style that blends seamlessly with the period bath and other fittings. As with Scotland Hall as a whole, the warmth of our Antiqued Brass finish is a warm contrast to the modern white space, picking up tones of the rustic beams – embracing the character perks rather than masking them is what truly makes period barn restorations so magical.

Portland Floor Lamp in Beeswax, Harrington Wall Light in Beeswax, Harleston Table Lamp with Fluted Glass in Antiqued Brass, Bathroom Ava Pendant in Antiqued Brass, Raydon Wall Light with Plain Glass in Antiqued Brass
