Description
A table lamp, 32cm tall, in natural. At 16cm wide it is about the width of a laptop.
A natural, unpainted finish shows the material doing its own work — the grain, the weave or the fibre is the decoration, and no two pieces are identical because no two lengths of the raw material are. Cast and wrought iron are heavy by nature, and that weight is doing a job: it keeps the piece where it is put rather than shifting every time something brushes past. Iron also holds a hand-worked line that a machine-pressed metal cannot. It comes with its shade, so there is no second purchase to make it usable.
E14 lampholder, 1 of them up to 6-9W LED, and no bulb in the box. Because it is E14, bulbs are stocked everywhere and you are never tied to one supplier. It is not dimmable, which means you choose the warmth at the bulb rather than at the switch: a 2700K bulb will do more here than a dimmer would. The cable is black, with an in-line switch you can reach without groping behind furniture, and a uk 3 pin with 3 amp fuse already fitted. The head adjusts, so you can aim the light at a book rather than a ceiling. A Candle shaped bulb, which is the word to look for on the box.
It weighs 1.2kg, which is enough to stay put when the flex is tugged. Wood. Metal.
A shade does two jobs at once and they pull against each other: it hides the bulb from your eye, and it decides how much light escapes sideways rather than up and down. A dense fabric does the first well and the second hardly at all. A pair reads as deliberate rather than repetitive, and at this width two will sit either side of a bed without crowding the table.
