About Basus

For many years, Basus has been associated with thoughtful design and carefully selected lighting for the home. What began as a small selection of products gradually developed into a wider offering, always guided by the same principles: authenticity, craftsmanship, and respect for good design.

As our journey continued, we became increasingly drawn to a part of the design world that often goes overlooked — ex-display lighting. Showroom models and exhibition pieces represent some of the finest designs available, yet once their display period ends they are rarely offered to the wider public. In 2025, we decided to dedicate Basus to this purpose, creating a store focused exclusively on giving these unique pieces a second life.

Our collection features genuine designer lamps from well-regarded European brands, sourced directly from trusted showrooms and partners. Each piece is individually checked and described with complete honesty, so that our customers know exactly what they are purchasing. These are not replicas or imitations, but original works of design that carry both history and character. By offering them at outlet prices, we make timeless design more attainable without compromising on quality.

From our base in Glasgow, we now serve customers across the UK who share our love for modern and classic lighting. Whether you are searching for a bold pendant to transform a dining space, a floor lamp to bring atmosphere to a living room, or a practical table lamp with personality, Basus offers lighting that combines function, style, and story.

What sets us apart is not only the value we offer, but also the philosophy behind it. By extending the life of display models, we help reduce waste and promote a more sustainable approach to design. At the same time, we give our customers access to pieces that would otherwise remain hidden in storage — lights that deserve to be seen, used, and appreciated.

This chapter for Basus is about more than retail. It is about keeping design alive, respecting the original creators, and helping people bring genuine, high-quality lighting into their everyday lives. With Basus, you do not simply buy a lamp — you take home a piece of design history.
