Vintage Ceiling Lights

Originally vintage ceiling lighting was often prohibitively expensive and often needed to be rewired for safety. Most originals would have been hand-crafted from brass or copper and follow vintage style cues. Now you can get the same vintage quality, the same brass and copper components all hand-crafted in the traditional manner.

CEILING LIGHTING WITH HAND-CRAFTED VINTAGE FITTINGS

Old style lighting is the perfect companion in any period, traditional or older property. They are warm, inviting and available in almost any vintage UK style including Victorian, Edwardian and Georgian. The products in this category could be described as reproduction ceiling lights, made using traditional methods and in most cases hand-crafted.

If you have an 18th or 19th century stone built cottage, terraced property or country home, it is likely that more modern offerings won’t be suitable or appropriate. You will value the warmth and tradition of vintage style lighting for your ceiling, as it’s more likely to fit in with the look and feel of your home.

The majority of fittings in this section are made from solid brass or copper.  Some feature hand-soldered construction whilst others have had threads cut and are screwed together but in every case, they are suitable an older styled home.

Some of the brass vintage lights in this section have been chemically treated to physically age the metal, whilst others have been highly polished and then lacquered to prevent tarnishing. Some have been nickel plated and then polished to a mirror finish and then lacquered to preserve the finish.

Whatever you decide upon you won’t be disappointed. Every light fitting in this section is of the highest quality and in some cases can be made or adapted to your own specification. Additional chain, cable and glass components can be hand-made to your exact specifications to create a bespoke option.
