J&G Coughtrie Lighting

J&G Coughtrie Lighting Trusted, Timeless & Enduring Vintage Industrial Lighting. Founded in 1939. Made in Britain. Elegance and practicality, that’s the cut of our jib.

Trusted by our discerning customers for over eight decades, our UK-made industrial lighting features simple, geometric forms with enduring style, and robust construction. Built to last a lifetime, our products are made from the finest quality materials, with the highest spec finishes - quite simply spiffing. Founded in 1939, by a pair of innovative and determined Glaswegian brothers, our original

industrial lighting can still be found, working reliably, across the city. Robust, gritty, and sustainably made, we’re proud that our product still cast a rich legacy in lighting, spanning over eight decades. Our industrial lighting collections include compact and large bulkheads, along with a variety of wall and corner mounted Swan Neck fixtures. Weather and corrosion resistant, they’re built to last, energy efficient, and timeless in style. Each of our four key collections is based on original J & G Coughtrie vintage designs, reimagined, and refined for a modern audience. Bulkheads, Swan Neck wall lights, and Pendants are varied across the collections in type, colour, style, and mounting. There really is something for everyone - everyone who appreciates quality, and style. We work with our customers on a wide variety of ventures, from lighting schemes for conservation and restoration projects, to tailored light fittings for hotels, homes, offices, and hospitality venues - both inside, and out. We’ve also worked on a film, set or two, and know a thing or two about creating the right mood for any scene.

Hazel's J&G Coughtrie SP-12 outdoor lights have withstood the storms, salt, and wind of the Argyll coast for over a decade – and when one glass broke, a simple replacement brought it back to life.

Discover how quality design, durable materials, and excellent service make all the difference in outdoor lighting. Read the full story of SP-12s and their 12-year journey here: https://jgcoughtrie.com/inspiration/twelve-years-of-coastal-durability/

Our stylish and timeless designs don’t solely need to be an exterior option. Here you see one of our customers putting our SW-430 Shade Pendants to good use in the kitchen.
With industrial strength, this shade is built to last. Each SW-430 Shade Pendant is supplied with a matching cast aluminium ceiling rose that slips securely onto its own, easy-fit ceiling mounting plate.

Our SW-10 was recently featured in a project by@dualchas_architects, renovating this beautiful Perthshire stonework building into a warm, social, environment.

Our red fitting sits beautifully against the rustic stone, adding a subtle touch of colour that feels right at home.

Thank you Dualchas for the shout-out!

"SW-10 TESTIMONIAL
“The light replaced a near identical fitting that probably dated to the house’s construction getting on for 60 years ago. It was a nice surprise to find J&G Coughtrie still making them.”

CRIMINALLY NICE HERITAGE LIGHTS

Home to the greatest crime writer of all time, Greenway was Agatha Christie’s home nestled above the River Dart estuary in Devon. It was here Agatha penned the likes of The Mouse Trap, Murder on the Orient Express and created a certain impeccably dressed Detective named Hercule Poirot. Now, the beautiful Georgian home and extensive gardens are lovingly maintained and looked after by the National Trust.

If you are lucky enough to visit Greenway, you’ll be greeted by several SP-10 Large Oval Bulkheads at the visitor centre entrance and SW-10 Swan Neck Lights as you round the corner into the gardens.
