Description
Emmie is a small table lamp dressed head to toe in striped linen. A drum shade sits on a tapered, cone-shaped base, and the same vertical stripes, in a lighter and a deeper yellow, run down both, so shade and base read as one piece. It stands 30cm tall and 20cm across, which makes it a compact lamp for a shelf, a sideboard or a bedside table rather than the main light in a room. At 1.6KG it has a reassuring weight for its size.
We like it wherever a little colour and a soft, warm glow are wanted: on a bookcase or open shelving in a living room, on a side table beside the sofa, or on a bedside table or desk. Lit, the linen shade glows a warm yellow and the stripes still show through, which suits evenings when you want a gentle light rather than a bright one. The switch sits on the cord, so you can turn it on and off without reaching under the shade, and the 150cm cable gives you some freedom in where you place it. It is rated IP20, so keep it to dry rooms.
It is made from linen, iron and PVC, with the stripes printed onto the linen. It takes one E27 bulb, the standard large screw fitting, at up to 40W, or an LED of up to 5W or a CFL of up to 9W. Look down into it and a fabric disc covers the top of the shade, with a round opening at its centre. The maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download. For styling, the stripes sit happily beside plain painted furniture and other strong colours; give it a deep enough shelf or table for the shade to clear the wall, and let it be the one patterned piece in a quiet corner of the room.
