Gold & Brass Lighting

Gold and brass lighting brings a warm, metallic finish to pendants, wall lights and vanity fittings, and this range draws on three established lighting brands, Cafe Lighting, Eglo and Telbix, to cover a wide variety of styles. Whether you want a statement pendant over a kitchen island or a softer brass glow either side of a bathroom mirror, gold and brass tones suit both classic and contemporary interiors.

Why choose gold or brass fittings

Gold and brass toned lighting adds warmth to a room in a way that cooler metals like chrome or matte black don't. It pairs naturally with timber tones, warm neutrals and marble look surfaces, which is part of why it has remained a popular choice across kitchens, living areas and bathrooms. Because the finish reflects light with a soft warm tone rather than a stark shine, it also tends to flatter skin tones, which is a useful consideration for vanity and mirror lighting.

Matching your existing hardware

Before choosing a gold or brass fitting, look at the other hardware already in the room, including tapware, cabinet handles and mirror frames. Matching or intentionally contrasting these finishes makes a noticeable difference to how coordinated the finished space feels.

Styles and fitting types

This range spans several fitting types across the three brands, so you can furnish a whole room in a consistent finish.

• Pendant lights: suited to kitchen islands, dining tables and entryways where a hanging fixture creates a focal point
• Wall lights: useful for hallways, living rooms and as supplementary lighting either side of a bathroom mirror
• Vanity lights: designed specifically for bathroom mirrors, providing even, flattering light for grooming tasks

Choosing between brands

Cafe Lighting, Eglo and Telbix each bring their own design language to gold and brass fittings, from more traditional silhouettes through to streamlined contemporary shapes. Browsing across all three within this range makes it easier to find a style that matches the rest of your fit out, whether your home leans classic or modern.

Where to use gold and brass lighting

These fittings work well as feature lighting in kitchens and dining spaces, as ambient wall lighting in living areas and hallways, and as dedicated vanity lighting in bathrooms. In bathrooms specifically, check that the fitting you choose is rated for the zone you're installing it in, particularly if it will sit close to a shower or bath.

Practical buying tips

Consider the bulb type and colour temperature the fitting takes, since a warm white globe will complement a gold or brass finish more naturally than a cool white one. It's also worth checking ceiling height and drop length for pendants, and confirming whether a wall light needs a dedicated switch or is designed to run continuously as ambient lighting.
