Lighting
Light your home with pieces that look as good switched off as on. Browse statement table lamps, tall floor lamps, branch chandeliers and wall lights. Many of our lamps feature sculpted animals in gold and silver finishes. Layer a few light sources in each room for a warm, welcoming glow.
Lighting That Sets the Mood
Lighting changes how a room feels more than almost anything else. One harsh ceiling light makes a space flat. Several softer lights create depth and comfort. Our lighting range helps you build those layers.
The Three Layers of Lighting
- Ambient light – the main light for the room, such as a chandelier or ceiling light.
- Task light – focused light for reading, working or applying make-up.
- Accent light – lamps and wall lights that add warmth and highlight features.
Most rooms need all three. Put each on a separate switch or plug so you can change the mood.
Table Lamps
Our table lamps are full of character. Climbing monkeys, prowling lions and pink poodles all hold the shade. Place one on a sideboard, bedside or lamp table. Pair lamps on either side of a bed or sofa for balance.
Floor Lamps
Floor lamps light reading corners without taking up table space. Our extra large designs come in brushed steel, matt black and matt white. Place one behind an armchair to light a book over your shoulder.
Chandeliers and Ceiling Lights
A chandelier adds drama above a dining table or in a hallway. Our shallow branch designs suit British ceiling heights. Hang the base 75 to 85cm above a dining table.
Wall Lights
Wall lights free up floor and table space. They work well in narrow halls, on landings and beside beds.
Bulbs and Safety
Choose warm white LED bulbs for living spaces. Check each fitting's maximum wattage. Wall and ceiling lights must be fitted by a qualified electrician.
Lighting: Frequently Asked Questions
How high should a chandelier hang over a dining table?
Leave 75 to 85cm between the table top and the bottom of the chandelier. This lights the table without blocking views across it.
How many lamps does a living room need?
Most living rooms benefit from three to five light sources, mixing a main light with table and floor lamps at different heights.
Do I need an electrician to fit wall lights?
Yes. Hard-wired wall and ceiling lights should be installed by a qualified electrician to meet UK wiring regulations.
What colour bulb is best for a cosy room?
Warm white bulbs around 2700K give a soft, cosy light. Cooler bulbs suit kitchens, bathrooms and work areas.
