Description
This is the bankers shape done in a quiet, modern way: a curved white glass shade sitting on a satin nickel stem and weighted base, with a toggle switch on the body so you can work it without hunting for a cord. It takes a single E27 lamp and we would put an LED GLS in it, up to 20W. Light comes through the white glass rather than off a metal shade, so the pool it throws is soft at the edges and easy to sit beside.
At around 37cm tall it suits a desk, a writing table or a run of bookshelves, and it is small enough to work as a bedside lamp where a taller shape would crowd the pillow. We reach for it in home offices and studies, where the light needs to fall forward onto paper or a keyboard without glaring back at you. If you want the level adjustable, a dimmable lamp and a matching dimmer will do it. It plugs into a standard household socket and belongs in rooms that stay dry, so kitchens and hallways are fine, bathrooms are not.
The metalwork holds a satin sheen that stays calm under a warm lamp and does not show fingerprints the way polished plating does. Keep it looking right by dusting the glass with a soft dry cloth so the light stays clear, and give the nickel the same treatment now and then, with the lamp switched off and cold first. Nothing abrasive on either. It carries a one year warranty. We also stock the same shape in polished brass and in antique brass, both with a green glass shade, if you want a more traditional reading corner rather than this cooler white and nickel pairing. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What lamp does it take?
One E27 lamp, up to 20W. An LED GLS (A60) is the shape we would choose for it. Lamps are supplied separately.
Can I dim it?
Yes, provided you fit a dimmable lamp and pair it with a compatible dimmer.
How is it switched?
There is a toggle switch on the lamp itself, so it is turned on and off at the fitting.
How big is it?
It stands 370mm high, measures 260mm across its longest point and 190mm deep, and weighs 1.8kg, so it holds its place on a desk.
What is the shade made of?
White glass, held on a satin nickel base and stem.
How should I clean the glass?
A soft dry cloth, with the lamp off and fully cool. Avoid solvents and scouring creams, which will dull both the glass and the nickel.
