Bespoke Wall And Pendant Lighting For A Holiday Cottage Renovation

A long standing customer of the business, Yorkshire Premium cottages, once again entrusted Nigel Tyas Ironwork to create a unique piece for the latest project. This former weavers cottage was fully refurbished in an extensive project that sees an outbuilding linked the main social hub of the house by a subterranean tunnel, lit by our Stocksmoor wall lights when the night comes and the large ceiling light no longer shines through into the hallway. Architectural success, blending new and old forms of the property and finishing to a very high standard throughout make this a gorgeous place for a family retreat and more details can be found on their website at https://www.yorkshirepremiumcottages.co.uk/

Bespoke Wavy Springvale Pendant Light

When a client requests something really interesting, we struggle to say no. Always up for a challenge here at the forge, a project we completed a few years ago for a customer who wanted a variation on our Springvale pendant light.

We made a number of pieces for the customer and it's always good working with people with a creative vision and trust in the process to come up with something unique.
