Description
In continuous production since 1930, the Bestlite Collection has become a bona fide classic in the design world. Loved by designers for its clean lines and sophisticated form, this Bauhaus-inspired wall light looks as timeless today as it did almost a century ago. The lamp has an adjustable arm that slides up and down the bracket, with a shade that can be rotated. This allows you to direct the light exactly where you need it, whether for reading or creating ambience.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Gubi Bestlite wall lamp for its sleek, timeless design that effortlessly blends vintage charm with modern sophistication. Its chrome base and black shade make it versatile for various interiors, especially in contemporary or industrial spaces, where a touch of retro flair is desired. It works particularly well in home offices, bedrooms, or reading nooks, where directional lighting is practical. For styling, consider pairing it with minimalist or mid-century furniture to highlight its sculptural qualities, and position it beside beds or sofas for functional yet stylish lighting. A key tip is to keep the hardware clean and polished, emphasising its contemporary appeal while celebrating its classic silhouette.

About Heal's
Explore from Heal's. Founded in 1810, Heal's are an iconic brand with a history of innovation, and are synonymous with timeless elegance and exceptional design.
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
