Lonsdale & Dutch exports lanterns all over Europe and to the USA. Many Scottish stately homes, owners of town houses and architects also turn to Lonsdale & Dutch to provide high quality lighting for both interiors and exteriors of historic buildings and modern properties.
Proprietor Rodney French’s work features at Hopetoun House and Falkland Palace and he was recently commissioned to make replicas of Charles Rennie Mackintosh’s work for Hill House in Helensburgh.
Customers come to the workshop in Edinburgh’s New Town because they want something individual; they often ask for a particular colour, glass type or metal and Rodney will design and create it to the agreed specification. He also restores antique lanterns, chandeliers and metalwork.
