About Us     About Us

In our portfolio we have a variety of chandeliers, wall lights and lanterns that we have produced or restored – any of these can be recreated and adapted to your specifications, whether you would like more or less arms and lights, different dressings or cuttings or even a different shade of glass. If you are looking for something that is available to purchase straight away, take a look at our stock items. Adaptations including wiring to international standards or recolouring of metalwork can be offered. With all our pieces we can arrange packing, shipping, cleaning and installation and we will always endeavour to recommend the correct chains, ceiling plates or light bulbs to compliment the period of your lighting and its surroundings.
