Description
The Larncombe mini table lamp is 365mm tall with a 200mm multicoloured Tiffany-style leaded glass shade on a metal base. One 40W E14 golf bulb lights it, and bulbs are supplied separately. Small shades like this show the leadwork clearly, since the panels are cut smaller and sit closer together, and the colour is in the glass rather than on it. At 1.3kg it lifts easily with one hand. It is a Class 2 fitting, double insulated, and this is the size that fits where nothing else will.
A mini lamp is for the awkward spot: a narrow bedside table, a landing shelf, a bookcase, a window ledge or the corner of a desk. At 200mm across the Larncombe takes almost no surface, and the 40W output makes it a low background light rather than a reading lamp. Two of them along a shelf give a room a warm base level in the evening. It suits period houses, small flats and rooms already busy with pattern, where a large coloured shade would be too much.
The base is metal and the shade is leaded glass, held so the panels are not load bearing. Dust with a dry soft cloth, and for marks a barely damp cloth followed by a dry one, so the lead does not sit wet. Keep solvents and abrasive creams away from the glass. It is not dimmable, so choose the bulb with that in mind. If the size suits but you need more light, the wider Larncombe range runs up through small table lamps to a floor lamp and pendants.

Frequently Asked
How small is it?
365mm tall with a 200mm shade, so it takes almost no surface and fits a narrow bedside table, bookcase shelf or window ledge.
Which bulb does it take?
One 40W E14 golf bulb, not included. That output gives a low background light rather than a reading level.
What is the shade made from?
Multicoloured leaded glass in the Tiffany style, cut into small panels and joined with lead, on a metal base.
How do I clean it?
A dry soft cloth for dust and a barely damp cloth for marks, dried straight after so the lead lines are not left wet. Avoid solvents and abrasive creams.
Can it be dimmed?
No, this is not a dimming fitting. Its low output already suits it to use as a soft background light.
Is it steady enough on a shelf?
At 1.3kg the weight sits in the metal base, which keeps it planted. Lift it by the base rather than the shade.
