Morvex Sculpted Black Marble Table Lamp - Brass Base

The Morvex is a 760mm sculpted marble table lamp built around a tall, softly rounded column of black marble set on a stepped brass base. A slender brass stem rises from the top of the stone to support a rectangular shade in textured grey-toned fabric, finished with a brass ball finial. The lamp takes a single E27 bulb (sold separately) and measures 430mm across the shade.

Designed for living rooms, hallway consoles, bedside tables and study desks, the Morvex works as a directed reading and ambient light source rather than a primary room light. The 760mm height suits standard 450-500mm console tables and bedside cabinets, placing the shade roughly at seated eye level. The fabric shade diffuses the E27 bulb evenly downward and outward, softening the light for evening use.

The marble column is cut and shaped with rounded edges rather than sharp corners, with natural white and grey veining running vertically through the deep black stone. Each piece of marble shows different patterning, so no two Morvex lamps look identical. The brass stem, collar, finial and stepped square base provide a warm metallic contrast against the dark stone, while the stepped base also adds visual weight and stability.

The combination of natural marble, solid brass detailing and a textured fabric shade gives the Morvex a layered, tactile presence. The vertical proportions and architectural stepped base suit modern, contemporary and transitional interiors where a sculptural lamp is preferred over a purely decorative one.

What bulb does the Morvex take?

The lamp takes a single E27 (Edison screw) bulb, sold separately. A warm-white LED of 6-10W at 2700K-3000K is a typical choice for living room or bedside use.

Does the marble veining vary between lamps?

Yes. The black marble column is cut from natural stone, so the white and grey veining patterns differ between individual pieces. This is a feature of the natural material rather than a defect, and means each Morvex is visually unique.

What surfaces does the 760mm height suit?

The 760mm overall height pairs well with 450-500mm console tables, bedside cabinets and sideboards, placing the shade at roughly seated eye level. On a lower coffee table the lamp will sit higher than usual; on a tall bar-height surface the shade will sit above standing eye level.

How is the marble cleaned?

Wipe the marble with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. For marks, a barely-damp cloth with distilled water is acceptable. Avoid acidic household cleaners, sprays and polishes, as marble is porous and can stain or etch when exposed to chemical cleaners.
