Trelbette Floor Lamp - Black & Copper

The Trelbette floor lamp pairs a slim black steel stand with a copper globe shade. The stand rises straight from a square base and turns at the top into a short right-angled arm, and the glass shade hangs from that arm like a pendant. The glass has a vaporised copper finish, a mirror-like coating with a warm metallic sheen. The lamp stands 171.5cm tall and has a diameter of 24.5cm, so it gives height without taking much floor space. It takes a single E27 bulb, which is not included, so you choose the colour and style of bulb yourself. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs indoors in dry rooms.

We think it suits a living room corner beside an armchair or sofa, a reading nook, or a bedroom where a ceiling light feels too bright in the evening. Because the shade hangs out from the stand rather than sitting on top of it, the light falls forward over a chair while the upright stays tucked against the wall. The black and copper finish works with dark painted walls, warm wood and brass or copper accents, and the clean lines sit comfortably in modern and mid-century rooms alike. Its narrow profile makes it a good choice where floor space is tight, such as a hallway or a small flat.

The stand is steel with a black finish, and at 5.15KG the lamp has a solid, settled feel on the floor. A foot switch turns it on and off, so there is no reaching under the shade for a switch. It runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz, the standard household supply. To keep the copper glass bright, dust it with a soft dry cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners, which could mark the coating. The installation instructions come as a download, and it is worth reading them before you put the lamp together.
