Lumen 6 Light Floor Lamp - Gold & Matt Black

The Lumen is a 160cm floor lamp built around a vertical matt black stem carrying six staggered arms, each ending in a clear glass globe capped with a brushed gold collar. The six G9 bulb fittings (bulbs sold separately) sit inside the glass spheres at different heights along the 28cm-wide cluster, creating layered ambient light rather than a single directional beam.

Designed for living rooms, lounge corners and reading areas where vertical lighting adds interest without taking up floor space, the Lumen suits rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. The black stem anchors the composition and the gold caps provide warm metallic accents that catch light from the bulbs and from daylight through windows. The glass globes are approximately 100-120mm diameter and the staggered arrangement means the light spreads across a vertical zone rather than concentrating at one level.

The matt black finish on the central stem reduces reflections and gives the lamp a graphic profile that works in minimalist, mid-century and contemporary interiors. The brushed gold caps introduce warmth without the high-polish glare of polished brass or chrome. At 4.5kg the lamp has enough weight in the base to remain stable on carpet or hard floors, and the 28cm footprint fits into corners and beside sofas without encroaching on walking routes. The G9 bulbs allow for choice of light temperature and output, with most users pairing warm-white LEDs between 2700-3000K for ambient evening lighting.

What bulbs does it take?

The Lumen takes six G9 capsule bulbs, sold separately. Maximum wattage is 33W across all six bulbs combined, which typically means 5-6W LED per bulb. Most users choose warm-white LEDs between 2700-3000K for ambient lighting.

Is it suitable for low ceilings?

At 160cm height the Lumen works best in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. In rooms with lower ceilings the lamp may feel visually compressed, though it will still function safely.

Can it be used for reading?

The Lumen provides ambient light rather than focused task light. It works well beside a reading chair to add general illumination to the corner, but most readers will still pair it with a directional reading lamp or an adjustable arm lamp for concentrated light on the page.

How stable is the base?

The lamp weighs 4.5kg and has a 28cm circular base footprint. This provides adequate stability on both carpet and hard floors for normal domestic use, though care should be taken in homes with young children or pets that might knock into the stem.
