Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.
What holds its value across Made.com
- Design-led pieces in good condition, which is what the brand was bought for and what buyers still search by name
- Velvet and bouclé upholstery in the distinctive colours the brand used, which are hard to find elsewhere at any price
- Pieces with all original fixings and assembly instructions, which matter more than usual because replacements cannot be ordered
- Marble and solid-wood topped tables, which are the materials that survive rather than the veneered ones
What pulls Made.com resale value down
- Damaged or stained upholstery, since replacement covers can no longer be ordered from anyone
- Missing fixings and bolts, which on flat-pack furniture from a closed company means sourcing generic substitutes
- Upholstery with no fire-safety label, which UK buyers check for under the cushions
- Chipped veneer and foil edges, which are the usual failure on the lower-priced ranges and cannot be repaired invisibly
Identifying and dating yours
- Say in the listing that parts and covers are no longer available, because a buyer will find out and it is better coming from you
- Photograph the label under the seat, which carries the range name and the fire safety information
- Count and photograph every fixing and the instructions if you still have them, since they cannot be replaced
What lifts any ceiling light, whatever the label
Ceiling lights need installing, so buyers want to know the fitting type and whether it is complete before anything else.
- Recognised design pieces and period fittings
- Complete with all shades, bulbs and fixings
- Standard fitting types
- Safe wiring with intact terminal blocks
And what pulls one down
- Missing shades and diffusers, often unmatched
- Perished wiring and cracked terminal blocks
- Non-standard fittings requiring adaptors
- Generic modern fittings
Working out what yours is worth
- Note the fitting type and number of bulbs
- Confirm every shade and diffuser is present
- Check the wiring and terminal block condition
What to state in the listing
- Fitting type, number of bulbs and bulb cap code
- Diameter and drop length, and whether the drop is adjustable
- Material of the frame and shades
- Whether all mounting hardware is included, and whether it has been tested
Type, bulbs and drop: “5 Arm Chandelier Ceiling Light, E14 Bulbs, 60cm Drop”. Bulb fitting code and the number of lamps are real searches. Say if it is dimmable-compatible and whether bulbs are included.
Preparing and photographing it
- Note the fitting type, the number and type of bulbs, and the drop length if it is a pendant.
- Check the flex, the ceiling rose and any glass shade for chips, and confirm all mounting hardware is present.
- Test it if you can do so safely, or say plainly that it is untested and why.
- The light assembled, whole, ideally hung
- The mounting plate and wiring block
- Each shade or diffuser individually
- All fixings and screws laid out, plus any chip, crack or missing part
When it sells best, and handing it over
Lifts in autumn and around redecorating in spring. Statement pendants and chandeliers sell steadily; plain fittings compete on price.
Pack glass shades individually and heavily. Include every screw and the mounting plate, taped into a bag, because a light without its plate cannot be fitted.
What buyers ask
Can I still get replacement covers or parts?
No. The company ceased trading in 2022, so spares, covers and warranty support are gone. Sell the piece as it stands and say so plainly.
Does that make the furniture worth less?
It makes damaged pieces worth much less, because they cannot be put right. Undamaged pieces still sell well — the designs are what people wanted in the first place.
How much is a Made.com ceiling light worth?
Roughly £11 to £63 depending on condition, against £12 to £70 for ceiling lights generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
