Lupin 4 Light Floor Lamp - Gloss White & Polished Chrome

The Lupin is a 1650mm floor lamp built around a 530mm cylindrical shade made from two layers: an outer gloss white acrylic drum with laser-cut circular and oval apertures, and an inner opal white acrylic diffuser that sits beneath. Four E27 bulbs (sold separately) sit behind the diffuser, casting light outward through the perforations to create a projected pattern on surrounding walls and ceiling. The shade is supported on a slender polished chrome stem rising from a 380mm circular chrome base.

Designed for living rooms, bedrooms and hotel lounges where ambient lighting is needed alongside a decorative focal point, the Lupin functions both as background illumination and as a sculptural object when lit. The dual-layer shade construction means the opal diffuser softens direct glare from the bulbs, while the outer perforated drum redirects some of that light into geometric patterns. The lamp stands 1650mm tall, positioning the shade at approximately 1400-1500mm from the floor, well above typical seated eye level.

The laser-cut acrylic outer drum shows a repeating pattern of circular and oval cutouts across its 530mm circumference, with each aperture sized between 30-80mm. When the lamp is off, the gloss white finish reads as a solid opaque cylinder; when lit, the pattern becomes visible as bright spots against the diffused background glow. The polished chrome stem and base add 8.5kg of weight to the structure, giving stability on carpets and hard floors without requiring a weighted plinth.

The lamp accepts four E27 bulbs up to a combined 60W. Pairing with dimmable LED bulbs and a compatible dimmer allows the output to be adjusted from low ambient light in the evening to higher output for reading or task lighting nearby. The 2700K warm white colour temperature noted in the specification refers to a typical bulb pairing rather than an integrated source.

What bulbs does the Lupin take?

The lamp takes four E27 (Edison screw) bulbs up to a combined 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with four 6-8W LED bulbs in 2700K warm white for ambient lighting, giving a combined output of approximately 2000-2400 lumens.

Is it dimmable?

Yes, when paired with dimmable E27 LED bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. The lamp itself does not include dimming electronics, so both the bulbs and the wall dimmer must support dimming for this function to work.

How stable is the base?

The 380mm polished chrome base and 8.5kg total weight provide stability on most floor surfaces including short-pile carpets and hard floors. The centre of gravity is low due to the weighted base, so the lamp is less prone to tipping than lighter designs.

Can the shade be cleaned?

The gloss white acrylic outer drum can be wiped with a soft damp microfibre cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which will scratch the gloss finish. The inner opal diffuser is best accessed by removing the outer drum during deeper cleaning, though this requires unscrewing the shade assembly from the stem.
