Pendants
Stylish, complimentary, modern, lighting for your home.
Whether they are shaped from a simple single block, or from a more complicated lamination, my pendants are a platform to show off some of the most characterful, often quite rare, locally-sourced timbers.
Much of the wood I use has been altered in colour and texture by bacteria or fungi to produce beautiful individual timber to work with and present.
Because I turn my pendants by hand and only produce small batches, I’m in a position to buy a single spectacular board if that’s all that’s available and produce a very limited run, providing you with something rare, or sometimes unique in your home.
The pictures below are more in the way of a guide than a shop window. If you like the look of one pendant’s design but prefer the species of wood from another and the cable from a third let me know and I’ll turn them to your request. Check out my Instagram account for new designs.
Easy to install and maintain, the pendants come with brief instructions on how to change the lamp and keep them looking fresh.
Styles
Spalted sycamore, ash and black walnut
The chocolate brown of the Walnut matches perfectly the darker markings in the spalted sycamore.
£325
Brown oak and ash
When beefsteak bracket fungus grows on a standard oak tree it stains its wood a much deeper, warmer colour.
£350
Ash and olive ash
Olive ash is created when a harmless bacteria infects the tree staining the wood to a colour similar to that of its distant relative the olive tree.
£285
Figured ash
The term ‘figured’ relates to strong features that occur naturally in the tree. In the pendant above a small amount of rot has caused this random patterning.
£285
Ash and black walnut
A stylish high contrast piece which at 35cm long is the largest pendant I’ve been asked for to date.
£325
Ash and brown oak
The ‘Beehive’ pendant has been finished with linseed oil, to give the ash element its lush honey colour.
£350
Ash
Almost all the ash I use is supplied from a woodland near to my workshop as part of a woodland management scheme.
£210
Brown oak, ash and spalted sycamore
The black lines in spalted wood are created by different species of fungi growing in rotting trees which erect barriers around their territory.
£325
Oak
Because of its ready availability I only source my oak from small local mills, normally within 20 miles of my workshop.
£210
Spalted Sycamore and Sapele
Sapele is a species of Mahogany and consequently I only use it when it’s reclaimed. My current source is from a dozen doors that were saved from a skip.
£325
Spalted beech.
The more subtle spalting of the beech in this lamp sits well along side a more dramatically coloured flex.
My suppliers have a selection of 150 flexes to choose from to match or accent your lamp.
£265
Multiples
If you are thinking about buying a set of pendants to hang over a breakfast bar or dining table why not buy three different designs or three of the same design but of different sizes.
