Traditional Table Lamps

Traditional table lamps led by Diyas crystal bases in antique brass, French gold and polished chrome, alongside Tiffany styles in hand-cut stained glass over vintage bronze. Most take warm white E14, E27 or G9 bulbs and many are dimmable, sized to suit a bedroom, living room or study. Some come with fabric shades in cream, white or grey, others as a base on its own.

What the traditional table lamp range covers

This range gathers table lamps with a classic feel, led by crystal bases that catch the light and stained-glass designs built from hand-cut coloured glass over a cast base. Alongside them sit ceramic, glass and metal columns, including buffet and gourd shapes, so the silhouettes run from faceted and ornate through to smoother, simpler forms. Some come complete with a shade, while others are offered as a base on its own for pairing with a shade you choose.

Finishes, materials and shades

Bases come in silver, polished chrome, gold, brass, bronze and antique brass, worked in metal, crystal, glass and ceramic. Where a shade is included it tends to be fabric in cream or white, sitting easily against the base metal. Crystal and glass bases throw small points of light, while ceramic and metal columns read more solid and quiet on a side table.

Bulbs and dimming

Most lamps take warm white E14, E27 or G9 bulbs, with the odd B22 and G4 fitting in the mix, and many are dimmable so you can drop the level for the evening. That makes them well suited to layered lighting, working as a soft secondary source beside seating or on a bedside table rather than as the main light in a room.

Where to place them

Traditional table lamps suit a living room, bedroom, study, hallway or dining-room sideboard. As a guide, size the lamp so the bottom of the shade sits near eye level when you are seated beside it, which keeps the bulb hidden and the light comfortable. A pair either side of a bed or a sofa balances the room, while a single buffet lamp lifts a console or a sideboard. Free UK delivery over £99, worldwide shipping.

Frequently Asked Questions

What finishes do the traditional table lamps come in?

The Diyas crystal bases come in antique brass, French gold, polished chrome and polished nickel, with black chrome on a few. The Tiffany styles use a vintage bronze finish over hand-cut stained glass.

Do these lamps come with a shade?

It varies by model. Several arrive with a fabric shade in cream, white, grey, black or soft bronze, while some crystal designs are sold as a base only, with the shade listed separately. Each product page states what is included.

Which bulbs do they take and can they be dimmed?

Most use warm white E14, E27 or G9 bulbs, with a few G4 fittings. Many are tagged dimmable, so they pair with a compatible dimmer; the rest run on a standard switch. Check the individual listing for the fitting and dimmable status.

Are these table lamps suitable for a bedroom or living room?

Yes. They are tagged for bedroom, living room and study use, and most sit in the small to medium width band, so they work as a bedside or side-table lamp as well as on a console or sideboard.

What is the difference between the crystal and Tiffany styles?

The crystal lamps stack faceted crystal on a metal base for a glamorous, reflective look. The Tiffany lamps, including frog and turtle shapes, use coloured stained glass shades for a vintage, art deco feel.
