Description
The Paola is a 480mm table lamp built around a silver-painted metal stem that loops through itself before rising to support a conical cream fabric shade. A single E14 bulb (sold separately) lights the shade from within, and a removable glass droplet hangs from the loop to catch and refract light when fitted. The droplet can be left off for a simpler profile.
Designed for bedside tables, side tables in lounges, and narrow console surfaces, the 140mm footprint fits where larger table lamps would overwhelm the available space. The loop detail gives the lamp a sculptural form even when switched off, and the cream shade diffuses warm light without the harsher tones of white fabric. The dimmable E14 fitting accepts LED, halogen or candle bulbs up to 40W, allowing light level to be adjusted with a compatible dimmer and bulb combination.
The silver-painted finish on the metal stem is a cool mid-tone that pairs with both warm wood furniture and cooler grey or white interiors. The cream shade is a cotton-linen blend that softens light output and ages more gracefully than pure white fabric, which can yellow over time. At 2.3kg, the lamp has enough weight in the base to remain stable on uneven surfaces without needing to be fixed down.
The Paola forms part of a wider Mantra collection available in multiple finishes and sizes. This silver-and-cream variant is the smallest in the range and the only one with the optional glass droplet accent.

Frequently Asked
What bulb does the Paola take?
The lamp takes a single E14 (small Edison screw) bulb up to 40W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with a warm-white LED candle bulb between 4-6W and 2700K-3000K for bedside or ambient lighting.
Is the glass droplet removable?
Yes. The glass droplet hangs from a loop in the stem and can be removed entirely if you prefer a simpler look. The lamp functions identically with or without the droplet fitted.
Can this lamp be dimmed?
Yes, if you use a dimmable E14 bulb and connect the lamp to a compatible dimmer switch. Not all LED bulbs dim smoothly, so check the bulb packaging for dimmer compatibility before pairing.
What surface does the 140mm footprint suit?
The 140mm diameter base fits comfortably on bedside tables, narrow console tables, and desk corners. The 480mm height places the top of the shade roughly at eye level when seated, making it suitable for reading or task lighting in a chair.
