Helix LED Floor Lamp 42W 3000K - Silver/Chrome

The Helix is a 1850mm LED floor lamp built around a continuous helical frame that spirals upward from a 380mm circular base. The frame is finished in silver with polished chrome detailing at the base and peak, and houses an integrated 42W LED ribbon that follows the spiral curve, emitting 3360 lumens at 3000K warm white across a 120° beam angle.

Designed as both ambient and statement lighting for living rooms, hotel lobbies and contemporary office reception areas, the Helix provides general room illumination from a compact floor footprint. The spiral form distributes light evenly across different vertical planes rather than concentrating it in a single direction, reducing harsh shadows and providing balanced ambient coverage in rooms between 12-20m². A foot dimmer mounted on the cable allows brightness adjustment from 10-100% output without requiring wall switches or smart controls.

The silver finish on the main spiral is a low-sheen metallic coating over formed metal tubing, while the chrome details at the base and top provide mirror-polished highlights that catch natural daylight. The combined 4.46kg weight and circular base geometry give the lamp stability on hard floors and short-pile rugs without needing additional weighted anchoring. The 42W integrated LED has a rated lifespan typical of Mantra's LED fittings, reducing the need for bulb replacement over the fixture's service life.

The helical geometry creates visual movement when viewed from different angles in a room, with the lit ribbon appearing to shift position as the viewer moves around the lamp. This makes the Helix function as a sculptural object when lit and when off, rather than purely as a light source.

How bright is the Helix and what room size does it suit?

The integrated 42W LED delivers 3360 lumens at 3000K warm white, suitable as ambient lighting for living rooms, open-plan spaces and lounges between 12-20m². The spiral form distributes light across multiple vertical planes rather than concentrating it in a single direction, providing balanced general illumination.

Is the LED replaceable if it fails?

The LED is integrated into the fixture and not user-replaceable. Mantra's integrated LEDs have a typical rated lifespan of 25,000-30,000 hours. Under normal domestic use (approximately 4 hours per day) this translates to 17-20 years of service before degradation becomes noticeable.

How does the dimmer work?

The lamp includes an inline foot dimmer mounted on the cable approximately 300mm from the base. Step on the switch once to turn on, step repeatedly to cycle through brightness levels from 10% to 100%, and hold to turn off. No additional dimmer switches or smart controls are required.

What ceiling height is needed?

The Helix stands 1850mm tall from floor to peak. It works comfortably in rooms with standard UK ceiling heights of 2.3m or above. In lower-ceiling spaces the top of the spiral may sit closer to the ceiling plane but the lamp remains functional as the light is emitted from the full spiral length, not just the top.
