Description
The Vorbine is a mother and child floor lamp in satin nickel: a slim steel stem standing 170cm tall on a round base with a 23cm diameter, with a white tapered fabric shade at the top and a smaller white glass shade on a gooseneck arm partway down the stem. Overall it is 38cm in diameter, so it fits neatly into a corner without crowding the room. The light source is E27, with a maximum of 60W, and bulbs are not included, so you choose the brightness and warmth that suit you. It is rated IP20, which settles where it lives: indoors, in a dry room, well away from water.
Mother and child lamps earn their place beside a reading chair. The large shade spreads a soft, general glow through a living room, bedroom or study, while the smaller glass light sits lower on its flexible gooseneck, so you can aim it at a book, a crossword or a piece of sewing. That gives you one stand doing the job of two lamps, which is handy wherever floor space is tight. The satin nickel and white pairing is quiet enough for a traditional room and clean enough for a modern one.
The body is steel finished in satin nickel, which gives a soft sheen rather than a mirror shine, and the round base gives the tall stem a broad footing. A cord switch lets you turn the lamp on and off by hand, with no need to reach beneath the shade. It runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz, which covers standard household mains. The packed weight is 5.279KG, and the installation instructions are available as a download, so you can read them before you start. When you choose bulbs, keep within the 60W maximum, and a warm white bulb gives the gentlest light for evening reading.
