Description
The Sparrowmere double hoop table lamp brings the same idea down to table height: a mink fabric shade held between two gold leaf hoops, standing 660mm tall with a 380mm shade. One 10W E27 LED lamp lights it. At 4.1kg it is a heavy table lamp, which is welcome in a fitting this tall because it stays put once it is placed. It is rated IP44 against splashing water and built to Class 2, double insulated. The hoops carry the frame right down past the shade, so the lamp has a defined shape even when it is switched off.
This is a tall table lamp, so it works best where the light needs to clear something: a sideboard behind a sofa, a hall console under a picture, or a desk where a low lamp would sit below eye level. On a bedside table it suits a taller bed frame better than a low one. Light passes through the mink fabric as a warm glow and leaves the open top and bottom as a brighter wash, which lifts the wall behind. Use it alongside a ceiling fitting rather than as the only light in a room.
The hoops and base are metal in a gold leaf finish, softer in tone than a plated gold, with a fabric shade in mink. Care is straightforward if you keep water away from the fabric: brush it or use a vacuum upholstery attachment, and wipe the metal with a dry cloth only, since polishes will damage a leaf finish. Let the lamp cool before changing it and lift by the base rather than the hoops. Matching Sparrowmere wall lights and double hoop pendants use the same shade and finish, so a whole room can follow one line.

Frequently Asked
What is it made of?
A metal frame and base in a gold leaf finish, with a fabric shade in mink suspended between two hoops.
How tall is it?
660mm, with a shade 380mm across. It is on the tall side for a table lamp, so check the height works against a bed frame or a low console.
Which bulb does it need?
One 10W E27 LED lamp, the larger screw fitting. Let it cool before changing it and support the base while you do.
Can it be dimmed?
No, this table lamp is not dimmable. If you want the light level to change through the evening, add a dimmable fitting elsewhere in the room.
How do I clean the fabric shade?
Dry methods only. A soft brush or the upholstery attachment on a vacuum will lift dust. Water will mark the fabric, so keep damp cloths away from it.
Does it match the other Sparrowmere fittings?
Yes. The same mink shade and gold leaf finish run through the Sparrowmere wall lights and the double hoop pendants.
