Description
A square base of 13cm holds a slim upright stem, both in polished chrome, and it is supplied ready for a shade of your own choosing. The metal is bright rather than brushed, so it picks up daylight and lamplight from around the room and reads as smaller than it really is. An inline switch on the flex means you can turn it on and off from where you sit, with no reaching behind furniture. It takes an E27 lamp of up to 20W, and it will dim where the lamp and the dimmer are matched to one another.
We would put this on a bedside table where space is tight, or use two either side of a long console in a hallway. It suits a small home office desk, a dressing table, or the shelf beside a reading chair, and because the footprint is compact it does not crowd books, a phone or a glass of water. People who prefer to pick their own shade tend to get on well with it: a narrow drum keeps things quiet, while a wider empire shape throws more light down onto a bedside book. It is a lamp for dry rooms indoors, plugged in at a nearby socket.
The bright plating is the point of the piece, so keeping it clean is most of the upkeep: a soft dry cloth lifts fingerprints, and nothing abrasive or solvent based should come near the chrome. Unplug it and let it cool before you handle the lampholder. It carries a one year warranty. We offer it here in polished chrome, and it works nicely alongside other chrome and glass on a dressing table or a mirrored tray. Shade and lamp are not included, which makes it straightforward to match to a shade you already have.

Frequently Asked
What are the dimensions?
The base is 130mm square and the lamp stands 410mm tall, so around 41cm before any shade is added.
Does it come with a shade?
No, it is sold as a base only. Choose a shade with an E27 ring or a suitable adaptor to sit over the lampholder.
Which lamp should I fit?
An E27 LED in the standard GLS A60 shape is the recommended choice, rated no higher than 20W.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you use a dimmable lamp with a compatible dimmer. Day to day switching is done by the inline switch on the flex.
How do I keep the chrome bright?
Unplug it, let it cool, then wipe with a soft dry or barely damp cloth. Avoid scouring pads, chrome polishes and solvent cleaners.
Is it stable on a bedside table?
The lamp weighs 2.2kg, most of it low down in the square base, which keeps it steady under a shade.
