Description
The Kalmelle floor lamp is a tall, slender light in black steel: a slim pole rising from a round base and topped with an open wire cage shade in a tulip shape. It stands 159.5cm tall, with a shade 27.5cm across and a base 23cm across, so it takes very little floor space for the height it gives you. It holds a single E27 bulb of up to 60W, and the bulb is not included, which leaves the choice of colour and warmth to you. With an IP20 rating it belongs in dry rooms indoors, well away from bathrooms and the garden.
We see it working best beside a sofa or armchair in a living room, in the corner of a bedroom, or next to a reading chair in a study, where it lifts light well above the furniture on a quiet evening. The black wire frame suits industrial and loft-style rooms, and it sits just as comfortably alongside warm wood, leather or exposed brick. The narrow base means it fits tight corners and alcoves where a wider lamp would crowd the room. Because the cage is open, the bulb stays on view, so the bulb you choose becomes part of the look: a decorative filament bulb shows off the shape, while a frosted one gives a softer glow.
The pole, base and shade are steel, with one black finish running from the floor to the top of the cage for a clean, single-colour line. A foot switch lets you turn the light on and off with a quick press, so there is no reaching up to the shade or crossing the room to a wall switch. Packed, the lamp weighs 5.09KG, and the installation instructions are available to download, so you have the steps to hand from the start.
