How can you enjoy Summer all year round?
We all enjoy our Summer holidays, be it days at the beach, soaking up some culture or spending quality time with loved ones and friends. All too soon, the holidays flash past us and we’re back in our daily routines with the sea lapping blissfully by our feet becoming a distant memory.
Whilst most of us would admit to wanting more time relaxing these days, the reality is that we have sometimes have to make a special effort to unwind when faced with the everyday challenges of life.
When we’re on holiday, we don’t become stressed with what we’re eating for dinner, or worry about the rain after we’ve put the washing on the line – we just focus on the trivial things that make us happy; after all, we’ve earned it! But surely, we’ve also earned the right to relish a similar soothing sensation for the other fifty or so weeks of the year?!
Warm sun heating faces, sand tickling toes and a feeling of total wellbeing; imagine if you could have this all year round? What about treating yourself to a room in your home, full of the warm glow and comfort we associate with long, Summer evenings?
Enter our latest Trend, Indian Summer Spice, full of warm colours, intricate and tactile details that will transform your room into relaxing and welcoming space to enjoy for days, weeks and years to come. Taking inspiration from the Indian spice colourways, it is reminiscent of the last hazy days of Summer as it makes way for Autumn. Mixtures of colours and textures will delight your senses and add a delectable and tangible warmth without overwhelming.
Throw caution to the wind and mix your warm colours with carefree abandon that culminates in a perfect spicy curry. Balance your warm, aromatic oranges, golds and yellows with shimmering neutrals, calming greens and warm bronze tones with elaborate filigree and fretwork. Immerse yourself with textured cushions and throws, bringing a nostalgic wave of tactile comfort.

This is a great pendant to use as a cooling accent to a bright room and would also be a great light to showcase an old fashioned filament bulb!

A gently curving ceiling pendant inspired by Oriental design. This is a large light measuring 1.2 meters in height, so please ensure that you have measured the space before buying.Wooden strips curve elegantly around a central cylindrical opal diffuser which house an integral 22 watt LED light source offering an impressive 1870 lumens of light. Comes complete with a ceiling rose with cable and wire suspension which can be adjusted at the point of installation to suit most ceiling heights.
We love this in conservatories and to add a splash of oriental charm to any space! It would also be a great option to use to add ambience to restaurants and bars. A matching floor lamp is also available.
This gorgeous solid brass ceiling pendant is a lovely, warm centrepiece. Featuring a strong vintage industrial theme, it would look great with retro, industrial, traditional and modern settings. This pendant is made from solid brass with an antiqued finish – it really is a quality item that you won’t find everywhere!
Suspended on a vintage braided cord, which is adjustable at the point of installation. We can also supply additional lengths of cord for longer drops or higher ceilings – please do contact the team here at Lighting and Lights and we will be more than happy to coordinate your order with the additional length required.
This classically shaped pendant is a design triumph alone, but for added dramatic effect, you could team this with others to form a row or cluster. The bulbs reflect from the brass inner, creating a warm, cosy ambience and therefore would be ideal over dining tables or cosy corners. They would also lend themselves well to creating a romantic setting in restaurants.
