brass wall lighting for cosy spaces

We've found ingenious ways to treat, curve and flex brass into stylish, sophisticated wall light fittings. If you're thinking about lighting the walls in your favourite rooms, brass is a wonderful way to complement your interior design.

With its natural, bronzed hues, brass is a little bit atmospheric. It's also versatile enough to suit both contemporary interiors and those with a rugged, industrial style – it all depends on the type of fitting that you choose.

antique brass wall lights

Classic brushed brass wall lights make a fine addition. Pieces like our Clematis wall light, with its conical shade and free-moving arm, have been designed to last you through the years.

Antique brass makes a wonderful choice for outdoor wall lighting, too. Take our graceful Cromer wall light as an example: the timeless combination of glass and brass, seen here with a bronze finish, means that it'll happily stand the test of time – and looks charming, too.

unusual takes on brass

You'll also find some curious Art Deco-style brass wall lights in our collection. We've experimented with unconventional materials to create a few memorable, extraordinary pieces.

• With its smooth, delicately veined off-white colour, the alabaster Roly wall light contrasts with an antique brass base to diffuse a gorgeous, mellow light.
• Our Gatsby wall sconce uses the same material slightly differently: a small, square-shaped alabaster piece is cradled by a glamorous brass wall fitting, allowing the entire piece to sit flush against walls in grand interiors.

brass picture lights

Lighting can be used to draw attention to your most treasured pieces. Whether it's fine art in the dining room or your own original paintings in the living room, using a brass picture light could be the best way to illuminate it.

There's no hard and fast rule on how to display decorative art at home but picture lights offer a brilliant solution. They allow you to highlight the most impressive features of your artwork, without the need to worry about harmful rays of sunlight.

caring for brass wall lights

Like those made from other stylish metals, brass wall lights provide bright, versatile lighting all while making a striking addition to your home. While they're generally low-maintenance, a little bit of TLC keeps your brass lights looking lovely for longer.

We'd recommend a light dusting once every two weeks or so, so cleaning should be light work. We protect many of our brass wall fittings with a lacquer coating, so we'd also suggest avoiding harsh cleaning products at home.
