Gone Fishing

Designed by: Volker Haug

Why we love it: Whilst non immediately ‘industrial’ in appearance, the metal base and stand wrapped in leather, thick old-fashioned chord and bright, long-filament bulb allude to the illuminations of old. The splash of colour on the chord makes this simple, minimalist design particularly eye-catching.

Well Glass Pendant Light

Designed by: Davey Lighting

Why we love it: Tracing it’s origins back to the East India Docks, the Well Glass Pendant exudes old-world charm. Each clear-glass shade is individually made, resulting in slight variations from piece to piece and further imbuing it with character.
