Price History
Description
Louis Weisdorf first designed the small, brass Multi-Lite Pendant Light in 1972, marking a step away from his typical signature of using multiple repeating elements and reflecting his passion for diversity. The light is made up of two cylindrical shapes encompassed by a brass ring, surrounded by two quarter-spherical shades. The shades are adjustable so you can customise the Multi-Lite Pendant Light to suit your space.
Our Stylist Says
This pendant is a striking choice that blends a modern aesthetic with a touch of retro appeal. I love how the brass finish adds warmth and sophistication, making it a versatile piece suited to both contemporary and eclectic interiors. Its smaller size makes it ideal for creating focused lighting over dining areas, kitchen islands, or even in a series within hallways or stairwells. When styling, consider pairing it with minimalist or Scandinavian decor for a clean look, or use it as a statement piece alongside textured furnishings for added visual interest. Practical tips include hanging it at eye level or slightly above for maximum impact, and pairing it with dimmable bulbs to adjust the ambiance as needed.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture 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.
Influences and Design Philosophy
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.
Modern Expansion and Growth
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.
