BTC products are really nice, well made and have a lovely heritage...but some back office systems/ administration issues. On two occasions I have had no order confirmation and on the most recent occasion it took a while to find the online order that had been placed with money having left my account. Not very reassuring despite friendly customer service.

Fantastic company
Fantastic company - I love their beautiful, classic products. The two task lamps we’ve got are great quality and look fabulous. We also purchased two Hector wall lights and are very pleased with them! Original BTC customer service is second to none - when a lamp arrived with a damage from transport, a replacement was organised very quickly and efficiently. Thank you so much!

My beautiful shade broke while I was cleaning and the lamp tipped over so I was so happy to see that I could get a replacement. I also enjoyed watching the video of them making the shades.

BTC Fin Horizontal
We originally saw the BTC lights in the Paris showroom and after many years we’ve redone our kitchen and included a Fin Horizontal pendant. Very speedy delivery, super safe packaging and the gorgeous light was easy to fit. Getting a second one next as they look even better in a row.
