Firenze Traditional Floor Lamp - Gold & White Fabric Shade

The Firenze is a traditional floor lamp built around an ornate resin column finished in gold, rising from a three-footed base to support a 420mm white pleated fabric shade. The column features vertical fluting along the stem and decorative acanthus-leaf detailing at the capital and base, with gold-finished metalwork accenting the top finial and foot terminals. A single E27 bulb socket sits beneath the shade.

Designed for living rooms, bedrooms and reading corners where ambient background light is needed without ceiling-mounted fittings, the Firenze provides soft diffused light through the white fabric shade. The three-point foot spreads the load across bare floors and rugs, and the column height positions the shade at approximately 1.5m above floor level, casting light downward and outward rather than directly at eye level when seated.

The resin construction keeps the weight manageable while allowing fine moulding detail on the column's decorative elements. The gold finish shows tonal variation from lighter champagne gold on the high points to deeper antique gold in recessed areas, creating depth under room lighting. The pleated fabric shade softens the light output and hides the bulb from direct view when standing, making the lamp suitable for use alongside seating or at the end of a sofa.

What bulb does the Firenze take?

The lamp takes a standard E27 (Edison screw) bulb, sold separately. Most users pair this with a warm-white LED between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K for ambient lighting, or up to 60W equivalent if brighter task light is needed for reading.

Is the Firenze dimmable?

The lamp is not rated as dimmable. If dimming is required, you would need to select a dimmable E27 bulb and confirm compatibility with your dimmer switch, but Ideal Lux does not guarantee dimmer operation for this model.

How is the fabric shade cleaned?

The white pleated fabric can be dusted with a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner set to low suction, or wiped gently with a dry microfibre cloth. Avoid getting the fabric wet, as moisture can cause watermarks or distort the pleating.

What rooms suit this style of lamp?

The Firenze suits traditional, classical and period-style interiors where ornate detailing fits the room's character. It works well in living rooms beside armchairs, in bedrooms as reading light, or in hallways and landings where a decorative floor lamp adds vertical interest without needing ceiling wiring.
