Description
The Pentleigh medium table lamp stands 580mm tall under a 400mm multicoloured Tiffany-style leaded glass shade, on a metal base with real weight to it at 4.1kg. A single 60W E27 GLS bulb sits under the shade, supplied separately. The glass is cut into panels and leaded together, so the colour sits inside the material and the shade keeps its pattern unlit as well as lit. It is a Class 2 fitting, double insulated. The proportions are the classic ones for this kind of lamp: a wide shade over a narrow stem and a broad foot.
At 580mm this is a lamp for a sideboard, a console table or a hall table rather than a small bedside cabinet. The 400mm shade needs about half a metre of clear surface, and the height puts the light at seated eye level in a living room, which is where a coloured shade does its best work. It suits period rooms, panelled walls and darker paint colours, and it pairs well with a second lamp across the room so the light is balanced rather than coming from one corner.
The base and hardware are metal, the shade leaded glass, and the two are joined so the glass carries no load. Always lift the lamp by its base. Dust with a dry soft cloth; where marks need more, use a barely damp cloth and dry immediately so the lead does not stay wet. Keep solvents, polishes and abrasive creams away from the shade. This lamp is not dimmable, so pick bulb output accordingly. Pentleigh pendant, flush ceiling light and wall light options run the same glass through a room.

Frequently Asked
What is the shade made from?
Multicoloured leaded glass in the Tiffany style, cut into panels and joined with lead, fitted to a metal frame and base.
Is it too tall for a bedside table?
At 580mm it is better suited to a sideboard, console or hall table. On a low bedside cabinet the shade would sit above eye level when you are in bed.
Which bulb does it need?
One 60W E27 GLS bulb, not included. Choose the output to suit the room, since this lamp is not a dimming fitting.
How heavy is it?
4.1kg, most of that in the metal base, which is what keeps it steady on a surface. Lift it by the base rather than the shade.
How do I clean the leaded glass?
Dust with a dry soft cloth. For marks, a barely damp cloth followed straight away by a dry one. Avoid solvents, polishes and abrasive creams.
