Description
The Amberhurst mini table lamp stands 380mm tall and measures 160mm square, a small lamp with a shade of Tiffany-style leaded glass in the same multicoloured pattern as the rest of the range. The glass pieces are cut individually and joined with soldered seams over a metal frame, set on a metal base. It takes one E14 golf ball bulb of up to 40W, supplied separately, and weighs 1.5kg, which is enough to keep it upright on a shelf without making it awkward to move.
Small lamps like this are for the places a full sized lamp will not go: a bedside table already holding a book and a glass of water, a shelf of books, a hall table by the front door, a desk corner, a windowsill, or the top of a piano. It gives a low, warm glow rather than a working light, which makes it useful as a background lamp left on in a corner. The leaded glass carries plenty of colour for its size, so we would use just one on its own in a small room.
It is a Class 2 lamp, double insulated, and it is not listed as dimmable, so plan on standard switching and choose a warmer, lower output bulb if you want it softer still. Dust the glass with a dry soft cloth or a soft brush, wipe marks with a barely damp cloth and dry immediately, keeping solvents and abrasive creams away from the solder lines. Let the bulb cool before changing it. The Amberhurst range also runs to a wall light, a flush ceiling light and a large pendant in the same glass.

Frequently Asked
How small is it?
380mm tall and 160mm square, weighing 1.5kg, so it fits a bedside table, a bookshelf or a hall table without taking over.
Which bulb does it take?
One E14 golf ball bulb of up to 40W, supplied separately. A warm white LED golf bulb suits it well.
What is the shade made from?
Multicoloured Tiffany-style leaded glass, cut piece by piece and joined with soldered seams over a metal frame.
Is it bright enough to read by?
Not really. At 40W maximum it gives a warm background glow, so pair it with a proper reading light if you read in bed.
Can it be dimmed?
It is not listed as dimmable, so use standard switching and choose a lower output bulb for a softer light.
How do I clean it?
Dust with a dry soft cloth or soft brush, then wipe marks with a barely damp cloth and dry at once. Keep solvents and abrasive creams off the solder.
