Description
Three candle lamps share a single wide drum shade here, so light spreads across a room evenly instead of pooling in one bright spot. The shade is faux silk in black with a white laminate lining, and it sits above a slim satin nickel column that stands 1.6m tall on a weighted circular base. A foot switch on the flex does the on and off, which saves reaching under the shade. We reach for this one beside a sofa where a wider, softer wash of light is wanted from a single stand.
It suits living rooms and snugs, a reading corner where a table lamp would need a table, and the far end of a long room that the main ceiling light never quite covers. It takes small E14 candle lamps, and we would put LED candles in it and run them from a matching dimmer if you want to drop the level in the evening; both the lamps and the dimmer are chosen separately. Because it is free standing and switched at the foot, it is an easy way to add light to a room you would rather not disturb, including rented flats.
The metalwork is finished in satin nickel with a soft low sheen that does not show fingerprints as readily as polished chrome, and the fitting is double insulated. Keep the faux silk fresh by lifting dust from it with a clean soft brush, working around the shade rather than pressing into the fabric, and give the nickel column an occasional wipe with a dry cloth. Turn the lamp off at the switch and let the candles cool before handling them. Black and white against nickel is a quiet combination that sits happily with dark timber, pale walls or a mid grey sofa. It carries a one year warranty. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What lamps does it take?
Three E14 candle lamps, up to 20W each. We would fit LED candles of the C35 shape, which stay slim inside the shade.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, with dimmable lamps and a separate dimmer. Neither is supplied, and the foot switch itself is on and off only.
How tall is it and how much room does the shade need?
It stands 1600mm tall, and the shade measures 500mm across by 200mm deep, so allow clearance from curtains and walls.
How is it switched?
There is a foot switch on the flex, so you can operate it without leaning over the shade.
How do I clean the shade?
A soft brush or a gentle vacuum on low will lift dust from the faux silk. Avoid water and sprays on the fabric.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated for dry rooms only and should be kept away from basins, baths and unheated porches.
