Featured British Lighting Designers

1. Original BTC

Oxfordshire based Original BTC is renowned for designing and manufacturing lighting that delivers warmth, comfort and character to both indoor and outdoor spaces.

The Neotonic Collection is the result of a collaboration with Buchanan Studio, featuring five beautifully curvaceous handmade lights; table, floor, ceiling, wall and pendant. Each glass shade is hand-blown into a distinctive bullnose shape, forming a marble pattern in vanilla, strawberry and chocolate tones. Each piece is unique and inspired by craftsmanship and artistry, values we hold strong at Decorex.

2. Soho Lighting & Co.

Founded in the heart of London’s Soho in 2017, The Soho Lighting Company was born from a deep appreciation for interior design and sensitive restoration of period properties. With roots in refurbishing historic buildings, the brand seamlessly bridges heritage and modernity, creating lighting that honours architectural character while supporting contemporary living.

The new Acanthus Collection, designed in collaboration with Historic Royal Palaces, features pendant lights wheel-thrown in Cornwall using locally sourced clay, and hand finished. Each beautiful piece displays the marks of the making process, and the collection is a true embodiment of heritage craft.

3. Corston Architectural Detail

Established in 2019, Corston Architectural Detail specialises in meticulously crafted lighting and fixtures that bring timeless elegance to both modern and traditional interiors.

The Cotswold collection features the brand’s first collection of freestanding table lamps, inspired by the subtle variances in traditional Cotswold cottages. Crafted from porcelain, each piece is slightly different in thickness and shape, adding character and reflecting the uniqueness of the cottages. Designed to be placed throughout an interior, the lamps create a warm, homely ambience.

4. Rothschild & Bickers

At Rothschild & Bickers, every glass shade is hand-blown in the UK and made to order, and the collections span pendant lights to chandeliers to wall lights. This is a brand dedicated to preserving and celebrating the exceptional British craft of glassblowing.

The Diamond Chochin collection of pendants and wall lights is a contemporary reinterpretation of traditional Japanese Chochin paper lanterns. They project a gentle warmth and soft glow designed to make a space feel calm, and we particularly love the striking 20cm fabric fringe. The range of 14 distinctive glass colours is enough choice to ensure a match that complements its interior.

5. Haslam West

Haslam West offers handmade lighting and lampshades crafted from sustainable natural materials, alongside a range of restored and recycled vintage lighting. If you’re looking to add warmth and elegance to a room, you cannot help but be inspired by this brand. We love the thought that goes into each piece, resulting in a collection that is colourful, charming and individual, yet entirely practical.

 The Kashmiri urn lamp, with colourful, floral detailing, epitomises warmth, character and charm. Each design is meticulously hand painted in Kashmir, using time-honoured techniques that celebrate the craftsmanship, heritage and artistry of the region’s skilled artisans.

6. Porta Romana

Every piece at Porta Romana is handcrafted, unique and made to order. Working with makers and artists from across the British Isles, every detail is tailored to the customer, creating completely bespoke pieces and designs that will endure.

Its creative partnership with Gergei Erdei launched a collection of six pieces including the Etrusco Lamp, inspired by ancient Roman amphoras, and the Teatro Wall Light, inspired by Roman palazzos and theatres. Specific finishing details are selected by Erdei himself, who ensures that they complement the design.

7. Heathfield

Heathfield is a family-run business that works closely with interior designers on bespoke projects, and offers ready-to-shop collections. The designs, based on organic shapes, natural materials and with a palette of classic, earthy tones, balance form and function, ensuring that each piece looks just as beautiful turned off as they do when switched on.

One of our favourites is the new Gracie collection, inspired by Art Deco glamour but with a softer, modern edge. The materials used include brushed antique brass bases and a hand-formed, sculptural glass shade with volcanic frit finish.

8. Kansa Lighting

Over four decades, Yorkshire based Kansa has become a leading designer of decorative lighting and glass panels, whilst manufacturing other interior features such as metalwork and stained glass.

Its Miraba range embodies elegance, with chandeliers and wall lights inspired by the softness and delicate layering of peony petals, distributing the light in a warm, comforting manner. The chandelier acts as a refined focal point, which pulls the room together with quiet sophistication.

9. Tigermoth Lighting Ltd.

Dedicated to curating elegant, modern statement lighting, Tigermoth prioritises attention to detail whilst balancing artistry with craftsmanship. Its customisable pieces are made to order from its workshop in the south of England.

The Dapple collection of ceiling lights features a classic, curved, silk lampshade, but with a twist of an antique brass metal frame that makes the collection unique. This is perfect for a contemporary interior where warmth and individuality are equally important.
