Our lamp holders collection features a selection of decorative fittings for creating, updating and completing pendant lighting. Also known as bulb holders or lampholders, these essential lighting components are available in a range of finishes and styles, making it easy to create a look that works with your interior.
From classic brass lamp holders and understated black finishes to vintage-inspired designs, our range is suited to industrial, contemporary and traditional interiors. Choose an individual holder for a replacement or lighting project, or combine your holder with pendant cable, a ceiling rose and a suitable bulb to create a complete exposed-bulb pendant.
E27 Lamp Holders
Our range includes E27 lamp holders for use with compatible screw-in bulbs. E27 fittings are a popular choice for decorative lighting and work particularly well with exposed filament bulbs, allowing the bulb to become part of the finished design.
An E27 bulb holder gives you plenty of flexibility when designing a pendant, as the appearance of the completed light can be changed simply by selecting a different bulb, cable or finish. Whether you're creating a single pendant above a dining table or several fittings over a kitchen island, these components provide a straightforward way to develop a lighting arrangement around your space.
Brass Lamp Holders
Brass lamp holders bring a warm metallic finish to exposed-bulb lighting and work particularly well with natural wood, warm colour palettes and traditional interiors. Brass can also be combined with darker cable and contrasting bulbs to create a more industrial appearance.
For projects where the lamp holder remains visible, the finish becomes an important part of the overall design. A brass holder can complement other brass lighting and hardware throughout a room, helping to create a consistent finish across your lighting scheme.
Black Lamp Holders
Black lamp holders offer a versatile alternative for industrial and contemporary interiors. The darker finish works naturally with black pendant cable and metal fittings, while also providing a strong contrast against lighter walls, ceilings and decorative bulbs.
Black holders can be used as a subtle component within a minimalist lighting scheme or combined with an exposed filament bulb to create a more distinctive industrial feature. Their simple appearance makes them suitable for kitchens, dining areas, bedrooms, hallways and commercial interiors.
Vintage and Industrial Bulb Holders
Our vintage bulb holders are designed for lighting schemes where the individual components form part of the aesthetic. Paired with an exposed bulb, they can introduce character to period properties, industrial-inspired spaces and contemporary interiors looking for a more distinctive lighting detail.
Using separate components also allows you to tailor the finished pendant to your requirements. Choose a holder finish that complements the room, select a suitable pendant cable and add a bulb that provides the shape and light output you're looking for. This makes decorative lamp holders particularly useful for bespoke lighting projects.
Lamp Holder and Cable Sets
For a simpler approach, selected products in our collection combine a lamp holder and pendant cable in one set. These provide the essential components for creating an exposed-bulb pendant without having to source the holder and cable separately.
We also stock selected sets containing a lamp holder, pendant cable and ceiling rose. These sets provide a convenient solution when you want a coordinated pendant arrangement while retaining the freedom to select your own compatible bulb.
Sets can be particularly useful for renovation projects, kitchen lighting, dining areas and other spaces where several matching pendants are required. Check the individual product specifications for details of the components included and their compatibility.
Create Your Own Pendant Lighting
One of the advantages of using individual lamp holder components is the freedom to create a pendant that suits your interior. An E27 lamp holder, suitable pendant cable and ceiling rose can be combined with different decorative bulbs to create a wide variety of looks without the need for a conventional shade.
For a warmer traditional scheme, brass can be paired with a vintage filament bulb and complementary finishes elsewhere in the room. For an industrial look, black fittings and dark cable can be combined with an exposed bulb. The same basic components can therefore be adapted to suit very different interiors.
Multiple pendant fittings can also be arranged together where suitable, making individual lamp holders useful for larger installations above kitchen islands, dining tables and other areas that benefit from several sources of light.
Choosing a Lamp Holder
When selecting a lamp holder, first check the bulb fitting required for your project. If you're using an E27 bulb, choose a compatible E27 bulb holder and check the product specifications before installation. You can then consider the finish, style and other components that will make up the finished pendant.
Think about how visible the holder will be and whether you want it to complement or contrast with the pendant cable and ceiling rose. Brass provides warmth and decorative detail, while black offers a cleaner industrial appearance. A vintage-style holder can also become a feature when paired with a decorative exposed bulb.
Always check the product specifications, bulb compatibility and electrical requirements before installation. Electrical work should be carried out by a suitably qualified person where required.
