Price History
Description
The Odeon Lighting Collection is a modern day interpretation of Venetian Glass prism chandeliers from the 1960s. These glamourous handcrafted mid century modern lights are inspired by one of the greatest roman architectural feats: the infamous elliptical Coliseum Amphitheatre. The fixtures have superior light dispersion capabilities due to the generous quantity of crystals drops. These opulent crystals are daringly contrasted with natural unfinished iron, pitting the raw masculinity of the finish which bears the marks of the welder's torch against the dazzling femininity of the crystal. These beautiful pieces have been interpreted into many different functional lighting fixtures including floor lamps, table lamps and chandeliers.
Our Stylist Says
I love this lamp for its striking Art Deco-inspired design, which instantly adds a touch of sophistication to any space. The grey colour makes it versatile and easy to incorporate into both modern and vintage interiors, from elegant living rooms to chic bedrooms. It's a great piece for creating mood lighting, especially when paired with warm bulbs. For styling tips, try placing it on a side table in a monochrome room or use it to complement other metallic accents for a cohesive look. Its distinctive faceted glass shade brings a subtle shimmer, making it a real statement piece that balances practicality with style.

About Barker and Stonehouse
A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
