Coldharbour Lights is a decorative lighting design house that specialises in the design and production of original feather light shades. Each piece is hand crafted and made to order in our London studio.
The designs are inspired by the elegant lines of the Art Deco period and have their roots in theatre. The company was founded by Lottie Davies in 2017 in Brixton, London.
Our Values
Every Piece Is Handmade To Order
We are proud of the love and meticulous attention to detail that we invest in each of our exquisite handmade shades. Because of our human touch, each piece is special and no two pieces will ever be EXACTLY the same.
We Value Our Customers
We understand the trust that goes into buying a hand made piece online. We aim to provide the best customer experience there is. If we can go a bit further for you, we will.
We Enjoy Interactive Experience
From the experience of collaborating on a new design to the experience of living with a Coldharbour Lights feather light shade. Apart from the delight of living with a thing of beauty, we believe that one of the pleasures of a Coldharbour Lights feather shade is its playful dimension.
Soft and touchable, we make decorative lighting that can be stroked or, as with the Bertie, gently spun to cast rainbows around your interior. As a customer once said after living with her Filomena for a few weeks, “It’s a bit like having a pet.”
We Believe In Sustainability
We strive to minimise our carbon footprint in as many ways as possible. Keeping it local is a key factor. We all walk to work. We keep road use to a minimum by using local services for laser cutting and powder coating.
90% of our materials are produced in the UK and most of them are delivered by companies working towards a carbon neutral service. We recycle most of the packaging that our materials are delivered in, without affecting the aesthetic of our packaging. Coldharbour Lights is a proud member of Blue Patch the national social enterprise that funds community owned renewable energy projects. Find us in the Blue Patch’s Sustainable Directory.
Bespoke
Beyond our collections, we are able to offer bespoke solutions to fit your project. Lottie can work with you to create imagery as a starting point for a bespoke creation. Our feathers can be dyed to match almost any colour swatch.
Feathers
We use best quality feathers that are carefully bleached and hand dyed here in the UK. The feathers we use are by-products of farmed poultry or common game birds and are not from rare or endangered species. Our Classic Collection uses hen and goose feathers while the Rio Collection uses cockerel tail feathers. We offer a match dye premium service. We can match any colour from a swatch of your fabric or work from a Pantone reference number. Get in touch to discuss your project.

We love writing about home styling and how you can best decorate your home to suit your new feather pendant shades. We also attend a lot of events to meet our customers and to gain and pass on inspiration to other artists. Find out more information here on our news, events and style guides.
