Kitchen & Pendant Lights - UK Made

Kitchen Ceiling Lights

This range of UK made kitchen light fittings are manufactured by the same company that make our Fisherman's lights for us. These hanging pendant lights are made from hand turned Aluminium which is lightweight and are ideal for lighting kitchens, hallways and reception areas, with either a painted (powder coated -see below) or plain (silver) finish. The traditional cream is very popular for older properties and cottages, whilst the colours work well in more contemporary settings. The plain finish looks great in modern surroundings.

Each light comes with a braided 1m cord, with an aluminium finish lamp holder and ceiling rose, which contrast well with any coloured light fitting. Longer cables are available at not extra cost, but must be ordered at the time of placing the light order.

Lights are for internal use only and require an electrician or suitably qualified person to install them. All are fitted with an standard ES (screw) fitting suitable for  60watts. Although these days most people will use energy saving bulbs which can produce a brighter light with less heat. So a 20watt energy saving bulb will give similar light to an old 100watt bulb. (Manufacturers equivilant light rating do vary.)

Made in the UK

We think it is important to support British Manufacturers and these lights are all hand made here in the UK, with a powder coated finish (commonly called enamel, although this process produces a better finish).

As these are a hand made product this does take time, we estimate 21 - 28 working days but may take a little longer depending how busy the factory is at anytime. We and the factory work to get lights out as soon as possible, it is not in our interest to take longer than neccessary to produce a quality product, rather than a lightweight cheaper import.

Why does it take this time?

The products are hand made, not mass produced, the body and associated parts are all hand turned from aluminium, with any necessary drilling and forming done at this stage. They are then assembled, cleaned and then go to the paint process. The simply explaination (but it is a bit more involved!) is the light is sprayed with a special powder paint then baked in an oven which 'melts' the powder giving an even finish, the process can take several hours. Given the size and expense of these ovens and spray booths, only one colour can be used at a time, which then takes time to clean before a change of colour, so it is not unreasonably for the factory to organise the same colour batches together. This can delay the process by a few days depending on what batches are going through the factory at any time.

Once painted, the lights are then go to the electric fitting shop, where again they are wired by hand, assembled and the go for final testing, so each light has an initialled proof they ahve been electrically tested before leaving the factory. They are then wrapped, packed and sent out to us.

Colours -  All these lights can be supplied in Cream, (the traditional favourite), Pure White, Red, Black, and Mocha. (a pale coffee). Alternatively you can have them unpainted, so a raw aluminium finish, we call it Silver. We try and show pictures of all lights in colour, but this is not always possible, so we are currently amending listings to show what lights are in colour, plus a choice in the other colours. Cables are always black, due to test requirements and the ceiling rose on the fisherman's pendant range will be in the same colour. The Pendant Range, has the same colours, with braided cable and raw aluminium ceiling rose and top light housing.

Cable lengths are approx 1m, but we can supply them longer if needed at the time of the order.
