CTO Lighting was founded in 1998 by Chris and Clare Turner, with a focus on creating top-quality lighting, made from the finest materials by British craftsmen. Chris, an engineer, brought technical precision to the design and production, while Clare, with her fashion background, led the creative and commercial aspects.
Using luxurious materials such as hand-polished brass, mouth-blown glass, and artisan-crafted stone, CTO Lighting quickly established itself as a leading luxury brand for contemporary lighting, all made in the UK.
