From Norfolk to Europe: Vintage Electrical Lighting Supplied for Ralph Lauren Projects
There is a particular sense of pride in seeing lighting supplied from our Norfolk base become part of a beautifully considered interior thousands of miles away.
Vintage Electrical has been supplied for Ralph Lauren projects in Edinburgh, Scotland; Cannes, France; Milan, Italy; Malta; Croatia; Montenegro; Munich, Germany and other international locations.
Each setting has its own character, yet all share an appreciation for balanced proportions, warm materials and considered detail.

Heritage character for distinctive interiors
The project photographs accompanying this article show antique brass finish caged wall lights positioned beside large framed mirrors. In one setting, the warm metal finish contrasts with deep blue textured walls. In another, it complements green & cream stripes, equestrian photography and brass display rails.
The result is layered and distinctive. The lighting adds warmth and visual interest without competing with the wider interior, while its compact industrial form provides practical illumination exactly where it is needed.
From Edinburgh to Cannes, Milan and beyond
Supplying lighting for projects across Europe has allowed our designs to appear in an inspiring variety of settings.
From Edinburgh and Cannes to Milan and Munich, alongside projects in Malta, Croatia and Montenegro, the surroundings may change but the principles of good lighting remain consistent: balanced proportions, dependable function and a finish that works with the wider material palette.
Heritage inspired lighting is particularly versatile because it can create a connection between old and new. It can bring a sense of permanence to a polished modern store, complement the details of a traditional building or introduce warmth to a Mediterranean interior. They are intended to feel as though they belong within an interiors not as a passing trend, but as an established part of the space.
That versatility is central to what we do. A thoughtfully designed wall light should not dictate the whole room. It should strengthen it.

Lighting that supports the whole space
Successful retail lighting does more than make a room brighter. It helps establish the atmosphere, highlights materials and details, and makes the space feel comfortable and considered.
In the interiors shown here, the warm glow of the caged wall lights softens the strong wall colours and works naturally with the mirrors, picture frames and display rails. Glass and protective cage details create subtle highlights, while the aged metal finish adds depth and character.
Nothing feels added as an afterthought. The lighting forms part of a coherent design language running through the whole room.
This is where industrial and heritage inspired wall lights work especially well. They have a clear identity, but their simple proportions allow them to sit comfortably alongside both traditional and contemporary furnishings.
From Norfolk to Europe
Vintage Electrical was founded in Norfolk in 2015 by Steve Pattrick, following years spent rescuing and restoring original Coolicon and RLM lampshades removed from factories and warehouses.
Backed by more than 20 years of experience as a qualified electrician, Steves practical understanding of original lighting still shapes the business today. Our collections bring the character of factory, workshop, marine lighting to modern homes, retail spaces and commercial interiors.
These projects show how well proportioned heritage lighting can work across very different settings. The surroundings may change, but dependable function and a finish that complements the room remain essential.
