Lua Small 1 Light Table Lamp - Satin Nickel With White Shade

The Lua Small is a 420mm table lamp built around a flowing loop frame in satin nickel, topped with a 160mm diameter cylindrical white fabric shade. The frame curves from a circular base into a symmetrical loop that supports the shade holder, forming the lamp's defining visual element. An E27 bulb (sold separately) inside the shade diffuses light through the white fabric, casting soft ambient illumination onto nearby surfaces.

Designed for bedside tables, work desks and narrow console tables where a full-size table lamp would dominate, the Lua Small fits spaces with 300-400mm of available surface width. The 160mm footprint sits comfortably on bedside cabinets in typical UK double bedrooms, and the 420mm height places the centre of the shade at approximately eye level when seated in bed or at a desk. The satin nickel finish provides a cool mid-tone metallic that pairs with grey, white, navy and charcoal colour schemes without competing for visual attention.

The white shade fabric is semi-opaque, allowing the bulb outline to remain faintly visible when lit while preventing direct glare from the bulb itself. This makes the lamp suitable for reading positions where a harsh exposed bulb would cause discomfort. The frame weighs 1.5kg and sits stable on flat surfaces without needing to be anchored. The lamp is dimmable when paired with a dimmable E27 LED bulb and a compatible dimmer switch on the circuit.

What bulb does the Lua Small take?

The lamp uses a standard E27 (Edison screw) bulb, sold separately. Most users pair this with a 6-10W warm-white LED bulb between 2700K-3000K for bedside or desk use. The specification table lists the maximum wattage as dependent on the bulb chosen. Check the bulb packaging for compatibility.

Is the Lua Small dimmable?

Yes, when fitted with a dimmable E27 LED bulb and connected to a circuit controlled by a compatible dimmer switch. The lamp itself has no built-in dimmer control. Dimming happens at the wall switch or inline dimmer on the cable.

What width surface does it need?

The circular base has a 160mm diameter, so the lamp requires a minimum surface width of approximately 200mm to sit comfortably without overhanging the edge. This makes it suitable for typical bedside cabinets, narrow console tables and desk corners.

Can the shade be removed for cleaning?

The shade lifts off the frame's shade holder for cleaning or replacement. Fabric shades are best cleaned with a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner or a lint roller to remove dust. Avoid washing fabric shades unless the care label permits it.
