Price History
Description
Textured reeded glass gives this ceiling light an elegant play of light and shadow. The rounded shade is suspended from a short satin brass stem, creating a neat semi-flush silhouette that sits close to the ceiling. Coordinating satin brass details complete the refined look. Suitable for use in bathrooms.
Our Stylist Says
I love this reeded glass ceiling light in antique brass for its timeless yet contemporary appeal. It works beautifully in both traditional and modern interiors, adding a touch of sophistication without feeling fussy. The brass finish helps to warm up neutral colour schemes, while the textured glass lends visual interest and diffuses light softly, making it ideal for living rooms and dining areas. When styling, consider pairing with other brass accents or pairing it with minimalist furniture to let the fixture be a subtle statement piece. To keep it versatile, hang it in spaces with high ceilings where it can truly shine, and keep surrounding décor simple to let its craftsmanship stand out.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
