Homesteading shop

[slowworm]

I'm looking for shops that sell items aimed more at say an off-grid cabin rather than camping or normal home use. I often find myself trying to track things down but struggle to find anywhere not aimed at camping or just selling cheap tat.

For example, I would like to track down a modern good quality candle holder with glass cover. I have an Uco one for camping, and I can find loads of antique ones or cheap decorative ones but can't find something that is actually designed for home use and designed to give out maximum light.

There are some sites aimed at off-grid / green users but I've not been impressed by what they stock. There's the odd boating site that I've found useful but nothing aimed more at home / cabin use. Anyone have any ideas?

And sorry about the title but I can't think of anything more appropriate.

We bought on with glass mantle takes a full size household candle and its spring loaded like the uco and give off a lovey glow £2 from a charity shop.but there are places that still sell them.

Ascott and the self sufficiency shop are good. There are some great specialist shops but I'd also like to find the candle lanterns for taper candles

Hmm, thought Lehmans would have a decent selection even if it's just to get name/brands of some.

But it appears not.

That's the sort of shop I'm after, thanks, it gives me a few leads on other items such as the Aladdin lamps.

Although I am after a good candle lamp I mainly used that as an example. In the past I've also needed to look at all in one composting loos, household water filters, small stoves etc - all items that you would more likely to find on a boat or remote cabin.
