Best Bets: Top Brass Lighting Exclusives
Brass is back and here to stay—but you won’t find these designs just anywhere. Here are our top picks in our metal of the moment, only available at Lumens.
Replete with British charisma, Bert Frank’s Shear Pendant is the one that started it all for this exciting brand. Brushed brass on top and bottom lend a rich quality to this turned-metal design that bridges the gap between British industrial manufacturing and Savile Row.
Hector Table Lamp by Original BTC
Another entry from the UK, England’s Original BTC places pride on manufacturing elegant lighting designs in historically industrial regions. This lamp has sturdy yet delicate construction in brass and bone china, highlighting the dichotomy between industrial processes and artistic products.
Alison Multi-Light Pendant by Alder & Ore
Alder & Ore exclusively provides a range of designs for Lumens, including the mid-century modern-inspired multi pendant seen here. It’s a flexible take on the globes-and-stems trend, with brass shade caps and a slim hoop to tie it all together. Adjust the cords as you wish for a variety of looks.
Sircle Triple Pendant by Seed Design
Only at Lumens, this versatile design from Li Hui Lun for Seed Design is more than meets the eye. Each of the mouthblown globe shades is affixed to an arm that’s repositionable at 90-degree angles. So go upward, inward or upside-down to your heart’s content.
Gianni Round LED Chandelier by PageOne Lighting
A halo of light in a heavenly golden finish. We love PageOne Lighting’s boundary-pushing design ethos, expressed here in Gianni’s almost-round silhouette. The abrupt break in the circle gives us pause to consider the design, which always rings true.
RA LED Line Linear Suspension by D'Armes
D’Armes gives us futuristic elegance in glass and brass. The linear shade is crafted from Pyrex with amber glass tips to complement the polished brass fittings. This brand is dedicated to quality, using local suppliers to their design and manufacturing headquarters in Montreal—and you’ll only find them at Lumens.
Solo Pendant with Disc by Intueri Light
Lumens is the only online home for Intueri Light, a progressive design studio that works and manufactures modular lighting in Hungary. Seen here, the Solo Pendant with Disc is a riff on the original globe-and-stem Solo Pendant, lent a fun and funky vibe thanks to the design team’s ability to experiment with existing components.
Sky Bang LED Chandelier by Stickbulb
If you’ve ever wanted to own a piece of New York City, Stickbulb’s Sky Bang can help you get there. This chandelier is highly customizable, including options in reclaimed wood from NYC water towers and teardown renovations. We love this look’s firework silhouette and tailored brass central fitting.
Tempo Wall Sconce by ATELIER de TROUPE
We keep coming back to the globe-and-stem design because it’s a timeless look. Atelier de Troupe’s Tempo Wall Sconce keeps time in mind in this artful arrangement, like hands on a clockface. This brand is based in Los Angeles and is only available at Lumens.
Palindrome 2-Series LED Suspension by RBW Studio
Lumens is proud to be the only place you can find RBW Studio, the Brooklyn-based studio whose three founding members are Rhode Island School of Design alumni. The Palindrome collection is something of a misnomer, because this free-form light is never the same from any angle.
Just a touch of brass lands this beautiful pendant from Spanish brand Parachilna on our list. Designer Sebastian Herkner was inspired by flamenco shawls and uses a textile diffuser to give the piece a feeling of movement. Encased in handblown glass, the fixture is a delicate and unusual addition to modern interiors and is exemplary of Parachilna’s excellence.
Pipeline CM1 LED Linear Suspension by ANDlight
Responsible innovation drives Canada’s ANDlight to create eco-friendly lighting designs that span aesthetics from organic to industrial. The Pipeline collection is interactive, offering a modular approach to DIY lighting. The simple shapes can be affixed together into any configuration, or display just one pre-made design that speaks to you.
