New In: Seya Lighting Range

Tom Raffield’s newest wooden lighting range, launching on Friday 11th of November, is guaranteed to add the wow factor to any home.

Masters at crafting wooden works of art, the new Seya Lighting Range joins Tom’s iconic range of nature inspired lighting designs. An eye catching exhibition of organic form, each pendant is crafted with key attention to detail, ensuring each timber bend flows seamlessly into the distinguishing droplet like form.

“From the grandest oak tree to the raindrops that dance upon leaves, nature provides us with an abundance of beauty. The Seya Lighting Range reminds us to pause and take a moment to soak in the beauty our surrounding landscape offers”.

- Tom Raffield, founder.

Echoing the shapes formed as the soft light of dawn plays on the morning dew, the Seya Lighting Range’s graceful curving form invites a moment of pause. For serenity seeking spaces, the Seya Lighting Range mirrors the calm found at sunrise. 

Reflecting the tranquillity found within our natural landscape, each hand-formed curve of sustainably sourced timber is layered to gently cocoon a partially exposed bulb, gathering at its peak and masterfully secured with two brass screws. The Seya Range brings a new shape to their artisan lighting collection and each piece is handcrafted in Cornwall by their skilled team of craftspeople.   

Unique at every glimpse, each wooden layer boasts a carefully crafted custom twist, creating a lampshade that is different from all perspectives. The Seya Pendant is striking as a single lighting design or as a self-curated cluster of waterfalling pendants.

Reminiscent of the reassurance and peace found within brisk, winter mornings, the Seya Lighting Range is a gentle breath of fresh air to a wide range of interiors. Both the Seya Pendant and Seya Pendant Small available in Tom’s classic trio of sustainably sourced woods – ash, oak, or walnut.

Let light play on your space.
