Description

The Kara is a table lamp built around a hand-blown spherical glass base in a transparent aqua blue, paired with polished nickel collar fittings and a grey faux-silk drum shade. The blown glass base measures approximately 250mm diameter at its widest point and sits on a flat circular foot, with the polished nickel collar connecting to the lamp holder and supporting the shade above.

Designed for bedside tables, console tables in hallways, and side tables in living rooms where coloured accent lighting is needed without overwhelming the space, the Kara provides ambient task light through the drum shade. The glass base itself is hollow and non-illuminated, acting as decorative mass rather than a light source. The lamp accepts a single standard E27 bulb (sold separately) with a maximum 60W rating, typically paired with a warm-white LED between 6-10W for reading or low evening light.

The faux-silk shade is hand-made in the UK and has a slight slub texture that softens the light output while hiding the bulb when the lamp is viewed from typical seated or standing eye level. The aqua glass base shows colour variation in thickness — lighter where the glass is thinner, deeper teal where it's thicker — creating visual interest when daylight passes through the base or when the lamp is lit. The polished nickel fittings provide a cool metallic accent that bridges the cool blue glass and the neutral grey shade.

Frequently Asked

What bulb does the Kara take?

The lamp takes a single E27 (Edison screw) bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with a warm-white LED between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K for bedside or ambient use.

Is the glass base lit from inside?

No. The glass base is hollow and decorative. The light source is a single bulb inside the shade at the top of the lamp. The glass base does not contain any internal illumination.

What are the overall dimensions?

The glass base is approximately 250mm diameter. The overall height including the shade is typically around 500-550mm, making it suitable for bedside tables and console tables where a medium-height lamp is needed.

Can the shade be replaced?

The shade is a standard drum shade that fits onto the lamp holder via a spider or clip-on fitting. Replacement shades in different colours or materials can be sourced from lamp shade suppliers, provided they match the fitting type and size.
