Description
The Star floor lamp is a slim, upright fitting: a white acrylic dome shade sits on a thin iron stem that rises from a conical iron base. The stem and base carry a glossy black finish, so the lamp reads as a crisp black line with a white cap at the top. It stands 126cm tall and measures 25cm across. It takes one E27 bulb, which is not included, so you choose the brightness and the warmth of the light yourself. It is not dimmable, so it will not run on a dimmer; pick the bulb for the mood you want.
We see it most at home in a living room, set beside a sofa or armchair where you want light for reading or a second light alongside the ceiling light. It works just as well in a bedroom corner, a study or a hallway with a spare bit of floor, since the base takes up little space and the stem is barely there. It comes with a UK plug, so it simply plugs into a socket and moves from room to room as you need. It is rated IP20, so it is for dry rooms only, and the glossy black suits darker walls, warm timber and bright white rooms alike.
The design is by Cristian Cubiñá, and the build is simple, with two materials: iron for the stem and base, acrylic for the shade. The glossy black finish has a high shine that picks up the room around it, while the white shade gives a clean contrast at the top. As a styling note, let it stand on its own against a plain wall, or pair it with a low armchair and a small side table so the light falls right where you sit to read.
