Chelsom x Ian Mankin Collaboration
To mark the launch of our new Portables range, we are proud to collaborate with Ian Mankin, one of the UK’s most respected heritage fabric houses.
Bowland combines a timeless lamp design, cutting-edge lighting technology and shades loosely pleated in Ian Mankin signature Indigo and Peony Lining Stripe fabrics. These neutral cotton shades have delicate-coloured pinstripes which sit beautifully with Chelsom’s signature metal finishes, bringing a refined ambience to portable lighting.
Rooted in the North of England, Chelsom and Ian Mankin share a long-standing heritage shaped by decades of craftsmanship and design expertise.

This shared experience brings a natural synergy to the collaboration, where thoughtful lighting design meets characterful woven textiles, resulting in a collection defined by authenticity, warmth and a genuine appreciation for beautifully crafted interiors.
The Chelsom x Ian Mankin collaboration brings together lighting and textiles in a simple and well-balanced way, with a distinct focus on material, proportion and finish. The introduction of woven textiles softens the portable designs, adding texture and creating a warmer, more ambient light. The result is a collection that feels distinctive yet easy to specify, offering a refined decorative solution across a wide range of interior schemes.
