DIRTY RAT LAMPS
The Foundary Tail Pendant Light
Where Industrial Artistry Meets Curated Living
Not just a light. A centrepiece, that speaks your story.
You’ve spent hours choosing the perfect tile, the ideal benchtop, and cabinetry that reflects your personality - but when it comes to lighting, nothing feels quite right.
Most options feel generic, too polished, or lacking the soul your space deserves.
You’re not looking for something that just fits in - you’re looking for something that stands out.
Something with texture, warmth, and meaning.
A piece that doesn’t just light the room - but tells a story every time someone walks in.
This is lighting that speaks volumes — about your style, your standards, and the way you live.
You’re not looking for lighting. You’re curating atmosphere.
You’re someone who cares about the details - the grain of the Jarrah or Marri, the curve of a handle, the warmth of natural light at 5pm.
So when it comes to your kitchen, you’re not just finishing a room - you’re crafting an experience.
Every choice has meaning. Every material is considered.
So it’s no surprise you’ve found most lighting options fall flat.
Too polished. Too generic. Too disconnected from the soul of your space.
Designed for mass appeal, not your personal vision.
Built in bulk, not by hand.
You don’t want lighting that just fills a space — you want a piece that belongs in it.
Something real. Textured. Intentional.
Made by someone who shares your love for authentic design.
Because the heart of your home deserves more than a placeholder.
It deserves a story — suspended in light.
Introducing the Foundry Tail Pendant Light
Handcrafted in Western Australia using sustainably sourced Jarrah or Marri and aged copper, every pendant is a one-of-a-kind creation.
This is not just home decor — it’s industrial art, made for those who care about materials, process, and design integrity.
What’s Included & How It’s Made
Each order includes:
1x Handcrafted pendant light, made from reclaimed Australian Jarrah or Marri and aged copper — each piece hand-selected for character, then carved, shaped, and finished in our WA studio.
3x Edison-style globe ($20 per globe), offering a warm, vintage-inspired glow perfect for kitchens, dining areas, and entryways. Giving you the freedom to select your own globes
1x Ready-to-install cord & fitting, available in custom lengths to suit high or standard ceilings.
Care instructions, so your light can age gracefully and maintain its natural beauty.
Certificate of authenticity, signed by founder Graham Hill, with a story of your light’s origin.
Every light is made to order — not pulled from a warehouse — and goes through quality checks at every stage.
You've Got Great Taste. Now, Let's Confirm It.
You've already honed in on something special, haven't you? Perhaps a flicker of doubt remains. Is it too bold? Too unique?
Or maybe you're wondering, what truly sets this apart from the rest?
The answer, in a word? Everything.
This isn't just another light. From its meticulously hand-finished details to its ethically sourced materials, this pendant is crafted with unwavering integrity and intention. It's miles away from anything you'll find in a big box store. You're not just buying a product; you're investing in a genuine piece of craftsmanship, created by someone who genuinely cares.
Crafted with Intention. Built to Last. Designed to Be Noticed.
Raw Materials with Rich History
We use reclaimed Australian Jarrah or Marri and aged copper — selected not for perfection, but for character. The grain, the knots, the patina — all celebrate natural beauty that deepens over time.
This isn’t about flawless. It’s about real.
Handmade, One at a Time
Each pendant is individually crafted by Graham Hill. No machines. No assembly lines. Just care, skill, and attention to detail.
We don’t do mass production. We do meaning.
Designed With You in Mind
Custom cord lengths, personal tweaks, and finishes to match your space. We’ll work with you to make sure your light fits your vision — perfectly.
Because your home isn’t standard. And your lighting shouldn’t be either.
