Some rooms are built around a single table: the long dining table where the family gathers, the island where everyone ends up. The Alton Linear gives that table the light it deserves.
Two lengths of ribbed glass, lined with parchment and suspended on slim brass rods, cast a soft, even glow along its full length – sculptural by day, quietly atmospheric by night. Each piece is hand-assembled to order in our Herefordshire workshop.

A light for the table at the heart of the house
You have spent time getting the room right: the table, the joinery, the materials. What hangs above it should feel just as considered. The Alton Linear is made for long dining tables, kitchen islands and bars – places where a single statement piece must light the whole length of the surface and hold its own in the room.
Born on a dairy farm
The Alton began with a commission. While designing a bespoke chandelier from original glass milk tubes, sourced from a [Herefordshire] dairy farm, our designers were struck by the form itself: its clarity, its repetition, its quiet strength. What had once carried milk through a working parlour had the makings of something architectural.
The Alton collection grew from that moment, and the Linear is its most generous expression.
For over 40 years, Fritz Fryer has designed, made and restored lighting for private homes, architects and some of Britain’s most significant heritage buildings. The Alton carries the same craftsmanship into a contemporary piece.
