Gathered cotton and warm antique brass, from the pendants overhead to the lights on each table. Our bespoke lighting for Edmondo, the Italian restaurant in Hamburg from .

Housed in a former bank dating back to 1897, the dining room is a generous study in green: deep emerald walls, olive leather and turquoise woven through patterned upholstery. White tablecloths and pale cotton shades offer a softer contrast to the rich colour.

We made fourteen tiered pendants to hang from the six-metre ceiling, their gathered ‘skirts’ edged in hand-polished antique brass. Nine bespoke lights encircle the historic columns, each made in two parts to clamp around the pillars without permanent fixing holes.

At table height, fifty-eight cordless lights in ribbed antique brass cast a warm glow across linen and glassware. The same materials carried through at different scales, bringing intimacy to a room with wonderfully grand proportions.

A beautifully made lampshade begins with an understanding of fabric.

Our couture-trained makers know how cloth falls, how to shape a gather and how to sew a seam that sits neatly without disturbing the line of the shade.

Here in our Folkestone studio, fabric is cut, pinned and sewn with close attention to proportion and finish. Even folds, precise stitching and carefully finished edges give each shade its shape and character.

These are the same skills we now bring to our café curtains, carrying our love of fabric into another part of the home.

P.S. All our draped fabric lampshades are designed to be washable. Beautiful things should be practical to live with, too.

Two little letters that mean a lot to us.

Much of what goes into a light is hidden beneath the shade or behind the brass. The wiring, components and construction deserve just as much care as the details you see.

For our clients in the USA, the UL Mark offers reassurance that the lighting bearing it has been independently assessed against recognised safety standards. An important detail when choosing a piece for your home or specifying an entire project.

We have something lovely to share with you soon.

We’ve been working on a new addition to our collection, bringing our love of fabric, brass and beautiful light to another part of the home.

Designed and made here in our Folkestone studio. A little glimpse for now, with more to follow…

Is your restaurant / hotel / venue ready for the party season? We can make your lighting in your choice of finish and delivered before the parties start.

If you're thinking about red w**e being spilled on the shades, there is nothing to worry about. The shades are easily removed and machine washable. We can even provide spares to be folded away until you need them.

It's official, the clocks have gone back and the days are darker and colder. But it isn't a bad thing, in fact, it's our favourite time for lighting. Make the most of darker rooms, layer your lighting with wall, table and dimmed central lights to create the perfect atmosphere.

We created this scene, with warm wood panelled walls, marble fireplace and finished off with our Ardenne chandelier in pride of place.

Making the most of our international projects, Daniel is very happy to visit clients and look to find physical showrooms to showcase our work. His recent trip to Mallorca was a great opportunity to see Pueblo, a project completed earlier this year and to discuss the upcoming projects around the island.

We are compiling a map for 2027 to illustrate where our products are able to be viewed in person. If you are a showroom in Canada, America, Europe, UK or Dubai, please get in touch to understand the benefits of becoming one of our curated collection of showrooms.

How did we create our Chapelle table light?

We started with the form, a curved woven sinemay shade, that balanced on top of a stitched cone in the same material. Then we engineered a carved wooden stand, which clips onto the cone of the shade, sealing the design and making it easy to move around the table. With a firm tilt of the shade, the base "snaps" off and the bulb can be accessed.

The Chapelle is a great example of how we look to make beautiful objects with craft and luxurious materials, to give individuality to an interior and still produce a warm, ambient light.

We don't want to panic you, but you don't have long if you are planning to finish your home or interior project in time for Christmas.

All of our lights are made-to-order, and have a standard lead time of 6 weeks from order to delivery. That gives just 4 more weeks before the cut-off to deliver in time for Christmas. Email or buy online to avoid disappointment.
