Description
A tall floor lamp with a wide drum shade in dual faux silk, midnight black on the outside with an olive green lining that warms the light as it falls. The stand is finished in matt black, and a foot switch on the flex lets you work it from your chair. Three E14 candle lamps sit inside the shade, so the light is spread across the full 50cm width rather than pooling at the centre.
This is a lamp for the corner of a sitting room, beside a deep armchair or at the end of a sofa, where you want a good pool of reading light and a soft wash over the walls behind. At 1.6m it stands above seated eye level, so the shade does the work of hiding the lamps. We would put it in a snug, a bedroom reading corner or a home office where a table lamp would be lost. It will dim if you pair dimmable lamps with a separate dimmer, though it works perfectly well switched.
The shade is faux silk on both faces, olive green turned inward and midnight black outside, so the lamp reads dark in the room while the light it gives stays warm. Matt black continues down the stand to the base, keeping the whole piece quiet and low key. Give the fabric an occasional going over with a soft brush and wipe the stand with a dry cloth, nothing damp on either. The build is double insulated and belongs in dry rooms indoors, away from bathrooms and covered porches. It carries a one year warranty. We would fit clear candle lamps for sparkle at the edges of the shade, or opal for a flatter, softer light; lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
How big is the shade?
The drum shade measures 500mm across and 200mm deep, which makes it a generous lamp for a corner rather than a slim reader.
What is the overall height?
It stands 1600mm tall, so the shade sits above the eye line of anyone seated beside it.
Which lamps does it take?
Three E14 candle lamps, rated to a maximum of 20W each. LED candle lamps in the C35 shape are the sensible choice, and lamps are supplied separately.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you fit dimmable lamps and use a suitable dimmer. No dimmer is supplied with the lamp.
How is it switched?
There is a foot switch on the flex, so you can turn it on and off without leaning across to the shade.
How should the fabric be cleaned?
Dust it with a soft brush or a clean, dry duster. Avoid water, sprays and solvents, as these can mark faux silk.
