Mid century brass lighting captures the optimism of the golden age of design: sculptural forms, warm metals, and light as a design statement. Our handmade brass pieces echo that spirit, bringing the timeless appeal of mid century style together with Moroccan craft.
Brass was the defining metal of mid century interiors, and it is back for good reason. It warms up a room the way no other metal can.
The look
Think globe pendants, starburst forms, clean dome shades, and elegant tapered silhouettes, all in warm brass. Our artisans shape these forms by hand in Morocco, giving each piece the slight variations and depth that define handmade work. The finishes range from bright polished brass to softly aged tones.
Where mid century brass works
These lights feel at home in living rooms with low slung sofas and teak furniture, in dining rooms above walnut tables, and in home offices and reading corners. A brass globe pendant over a sideboard or a pair of sculptural sconces flanking a fireplace channels the era perfectly.

Styling ideas
Pair brass lights with the materials of the era: walnut and teak, textured fabrics, bold but warm colors. Let the brass be the warmest element in the room. One strong sculptural piece beats several small ones. Keep the lines clean and let the metal glow.
Craft that honors the era
Mid century design valued honest materials and skilled making. Our lights are made the same way the era would have approved: solid brass, shaped and finished by hand, built to be kept for decades rather than replaced.
Why mid century brass endures
Mid century designers chose brass because it glowed against the wood and fabric of the time. That same quality makes mid century brass lighting work today. Brass warms up gray sofas, white walls, and concrete floors. It is the fastest way to add soul to a cool modern room without changing anything else.
