Description
A turned wood column in warm taupe carries polished nickel at the base and the neck, with a white shade sitting broad and low above it. At 40cm across and 72cm tall it holds a surface confidently without swallowing it, and the pale shade keeps the light soft and general rather than aimed. A single E27 lamp does the work, and an inline switch on the flex means you are not feeling behind furniture every time you want it off.
We reach for this one on a living room console or a wide sideboard, and a pair either side of a mirror or a bed looks properly settled. It also earns its place on a generous bedside table where you want a warm pool of light for reading rather than an overhead. Take a lamp of up to 20W, ideally an LED candle, and it will dim if you fit a dimmable lamp and pair it with a compatible dimmer, both chosen separately. The lamp is double insulated and simply plugs in at the nearest socket, so it can move rooms with you.
The wood is left with visible grain under its taupe tone, and the nickel is polished bright so it picks up whatever daylight the room has. To clean, run a barely damp cloth over the wood and the metal and dry both straight away, and lift dust from the shade with a soft brush rather than a wet cloth. It carries a one year warranty. The same base is offered in satin black with dark grey wood, and shades run to cream and ivory as well as this white, with a version sold bare for anyone who wants to choose a shade of their own. That makes it easy to run the shape through several rooms without repeating yourself. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What size shade does this lamp have?
The shade measures 40cm in diameter, giving the lamp a total height of 72cm on a table or sideboard.
Which lamp should I fit?
It takes a single E27 lamp of up to 20W. An LED candle in the C35 shape is the recommended choice.
Can I put it on a dimmer?
Yes, provided you fit a dimmable lamp and a compatible dimmer. Neither is supplied with the lamp.
How is it switched?
There is an inline switch on the flex, so you can operate it at hand height rather than at the lamp itself.
How should I look after the wood and the nickel?
Use a barely damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive creams and solvent cleaners on the polished nickel, and keep water away from the shade.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20 and belongs in dry living spaces such as bedrooms, sitting rooms and hallways.
