Cotterell & Co is a family-run British lighting and homewares specialist with roots stretching back to 1952, when the first shop opened in Glasgow. Now in its third generation of family ownership, the brand has grown into one of the UK's leading independent suppliers of indoor and outdoor lighting, pairing a hand-picked range of light fittings with beautiful furniture, mirrors and home accessories.
The Cotterell family's connection to light and glass runs deep. In the nineteenth century, an ancestor from Como, a renowned glass-making region in northern Italy, settled in Glasgow. His descendants worked as glass bevellers, silverers, carvers and gilders, laying the foundations for what would become Cotterell Light Centres. That craft heritage is still felt in the quality and care with which every product is chosen today.
The Style and Light online store brought the Cotterell & Co range to customers across the UK. The catalogue covered ceiling lights, wall lights, floor lamps, table lamps, outdoor lighting and bespoke lampshades, all carefully curated to suit a variety of interior styles and budgets. Complementary furniture, mirrors and decorative accessories allowed shoppers to style a room from a single source. With over 60 years of lighting expertise behind the team, guidance on choosing the right fitting for any space was a core part of the service.
Alongside the online offering, Cotterell & Co operated showrooms in Glasgow and Edinburgh, giving customers the chance to see fittings in person before buying. The combination of high-street experience and a well-stocked online store made the brand a practical choice for both browse-and-buy shoppers and those seeking personal advice on a more complex lighting project.
