The Business

In 2007 husband and wife Chris and Nicola Cox bought a workshop shed on the Millmead Industrial Estate in Tottenham. With its Sheffield beams, double-height workspace and north facing skylights it provided good working light and as the business has thrived and grown the couple leased three more units - giving them 20,000 square feet of workshops, including space for their own foundry.  There they manufacturer bespoke lighting, furniture, mirrors, and objects, working primarily in materials such as iron, bronze, glass, and stone. The company a showroom on Pimlico Road in Belgravia. Cox London works with private clients, interior designers, and architects internationally, and also undertakes restoration of damaged pieces alongside its bespoke commission work.
