Bespoke lighting MADE IN THE COTSWOLDS David Hunt lighting is one of the UK’s longest surviving lighting manufacturers. Having evolved from a brass foundry established in the 1800’s, David Hunt lighting has been based in the North Cotswold market town of Shipston on Stour for the last 100 years. It is best known for designing and manufacturing wholly original products. Offering over 50 ranges and 30 stand alone pieces, each product is crafted by hand and perfected using traditional hand finishing techniques. This gives David Hunt lighting the ability to create textures and finishes that are unique to the brand, including the hugely successful Antler collection and the impressive hand stitched leather Saddler range. The design team generate an endless stream of new ideas incorporating not only heritage inspired colours, but also on trend influences and stunning textures. Their goal is to achieve a range of products that differ from one and other aesthetically but can still suit almost any design scheme; such as industrial trends or a more traditional setting. This gives our customers a wide variety of choice upon specification.
