About

From abandoned glassworks outside Budapest, to the old Rolls Royce factories of Coventry, Skinflint scours locations across the world to source and restore unique and historic vintage lights; manufactured in the era from 1920 to 1970, and originally utilised in a wide variety of industrial environments.

Each light is reclaimed and sensitively restored by UK based experts, then carefully rebuilt by hand to give a light with real character that you can rely on every day.

Skinflint was born of a passion for the environment and a love of beautiful objects: in an age of cheap imports and reproductions our vintage lights have an integrity of materials, place little burden on dwindling resources and have their own place in the history of design.
