The foot is a shallow trumpet 31cm across, the pole runs unbroken to a brass collar near the top, and a slim brass stem carries the lampholder above that. The stain is close to espresso and the grain shows through it in redder streaks. It stands 142cm to the lampholder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe flared foot is what holds it: at 5.2kg the weight is in the brass at floor level rather than anywhere up the pole, so the lamp stays put with a wide shade on top. At 142cm the lampholder sits above the head of anyone seated, which keeps the bulb out of view from a chair and throws the light out across the room rather than into a face. That suits the end of a sofa or a corner. It takes one E27 bulb up to 60W, the flex runs 3.5m with a switch on the cord, and it is rated IP20 for dry indoor rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMango is a fast growing hardwood and a by-product of fruit growing. Each pole is shaped and carved by hand before the dark stain goes on, so the depth of colour and the grain running through it differ from one to the next. The Digha range also holds a table lamp base in the same wood and brass. No shade and no bulb are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e142cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e31cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMango Wood \u0026amp; Aluminium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAntique Brass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDark Stain\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecommended bulb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE27\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax watt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCord length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlug type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUK \u0026amp; EU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.2kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a shade come with it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, this is the base alone.
