Description
Three small candle lamps sit under one wide drum shade here, carried on a slim stem finished in satin nickel. The shade is dual faux silk, raw cocoa on the outside with a warmer bronze face inside, and that lining takes the edge off the light as it passes down into the room. At 1.6m the shade sits at about shoulder height when you are standing and just above eye level when you are seated, which is where a floor lamp wants to be. A foot switch on the flex handles on and off with a nudge of the toe.
With that many lamps behind the silk it gives a genuine working pool of light, so it holds its own beside a reading chair, at the end of a sofa, or in the corner of a bedroom where a ceiling light would feel too stark. The 50cm shade is broad enough to read the room rather than just the page. We would put it at the darker end of a sitting room, where the sockets are and the ceiling point is not, and let it do the evening lighting on its own. It also suits anyone who would rather add light than rewire for it.
The metalwork is a low sheen satin nickel that keeps its manners next to brass or chrome elsewhere in the room, and the cocoa silk is a quiet neutral that sits happily with wool, oak and linen. Keep the shade fresh with a light brush or the soft upholstery tool on a vacuum, and give the stem an occasional buff with a dry duster; nothing wet on the fabric. It will dim if you fit suitable lamps and pair them with a compatible dimmer, though neither the dimmer nor the lamps come with it. It carries a one year warranty.

Frequently Asked
What lamps does it take?
Three E14 candle lamps, up to 20W each. LED candle lamps in the C35 shape are the sensible choice and the ones we would fit.
How big is the shade?
It is 50cm in diameter and 20cm deep, in dual faux silk.
How tall is it overall?
1600mm, so a shade top at roughly 1.6m from the floor.
How is it switched?
There is a foot switch on the flex, so you do not need to reach into the shade.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, with dimmable lamps and a compatible dimmer. Neither is supplied.
How should the faux silk be cleaned?
Dust it with a soft brush or a vacuum upholstery tool on low suction. Avoid water, sprays and solvents on the fabric.
