Mara 1 Light Table Lamp - Antique Brass with Ivory White Shade

The Mara is a compact table lamp built around a curved antique brass arm that sweeps from a flat oval base up to a conical ivory white fabric shade. The single E14 bulb fitting sits inside the shade, diffusing light through the pleated fabric to create ambient rather than task illumination. The 180mm diameter and 370mm height suit bedside tables, narrow console tables and desk corners where full-size table lamps would overwhelm the surface.

Designed for bedrooms, hallway console tables and small home office desks, the Mara provides a soft glow rather than bright reading light. The curved arm holds a decorative crystal droplet suspended on a link below the shade, adding a traditional detail without extending the overall footprint. The ivory shade diffuses light evenly in all directions, so the lamp works as ambient fill lighting rather than a directed reading lamp. Pair with a dimmable E14 LED bulb and a compatible dimmer switch to control brightness from low background light to moderate evening illumination.

The antique brass finish shows a deeper, warmer tone than polished brass, with a slight patina that reduces reflections and suits traditional, country house and warm-toned contemporary interiors. The fabric shade is pleated vertically, which creates subtle texture when the lamp is lit. At 1.1kg, the lamp has enough weight to sit stably on most surfaces without tipping when the cable is pulled, but remains light enough to move between rooms easily. The flat oval base measures approximately 120mm x 80mm, fitting comfortably on narrow bedside tables and tight console table positions.

What bulb does the Mara take?

The lamp takes a single E14 (small Edison screw) bulb, sold separately. Most users pair this with a 4-6W LED candle bulb in warm white (2700K-3000K) for bedside or ambient lighting. The maximum wattage depends on the bulb type — check the bulb packaging for heat output if using halogen.

Is it dimmable?

Yes, when paired with a dimmable E14 bulb and a compatible dimmer switch. The lamp itself has no built-in dimming control, so dimming depends on the external switch and bulb combination.

What size surface does it need?

The flat oval base measures approximately 120mm x 80mm, so the lamp fits comfortably on bedside tables, narrow console tables and desk corners. The 370mm height suits most bedside positions without the shade sitting above typical headboard height.

Can the shade be cleaned?

The ivory fabric shade can be dusted with a soft brush or dry microfibre cloth. For more thorough cleaning, a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment on low power removes dust from the pleated folds. Avoid water or fabric cleaners, which can stain the ivory fabric.
