Price History
Description
Design. The Rod collection is a modern day interpretation of Venetian Murano brass and glass library lights from the 1940's. The elliptical glass rod structure is inspired by the colonnades of Stowe School which made a huge impression on Tim during a visit for an away game in his school days. The dazzling opulence of the glass is daringly contrasted with our natural raw iron finish which accentuates the imperfections made in the handcrafting of the light.
Our Stylist Says
I love this one for its sculptural quality and vintage vibe, making it a versatile addition to both contemporary and traditional interiors. It's particularly effective in setting a cosy mood in living rooms or bedrooms, standing out as a statement piece on side tables or console units. For styling, consider pairing it with warm-toned fabrics and natural materials to enhance its earthy, natural appearance. Practical tips include using it alongside layered lighting schemes-think ambient and task lighting-to create a well-balanced space. Its neutral tones mean it works well across colour schemes, from muted palettes to bold contrasts, adding both visual interest and functional light.

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.
