Table Lamps

A table lamp puts soft, low light exactly where you sit: beside the bed, on a console in the drawing room, at the end of a sofa or on a study desk. Lumeil table lamps are built on iron and metal bodies in golden, white, bronze and black with rose gold finishes, paired with fabric shades, marble bases or glass.

Most take a standard E27 bulb, bought separately, so you can choose warm white or white light for the room. For taller light beside a sofa or reading chair, see our floor lamps.

What size table lamp suits a bedside table?

Choose a lamp whose shade sits roughly at eye level when you sit up in bed. For most beds that means a lamp 50 to 65 cm tall.

Which bulb should I use in a table lamp?

For bedrooms and living rooms, a warm white bulb of around 2700 K gives softer light. For a study desk, a white bulb of around 4000 K helps you focus. Each product page lists the bulb holder it takes.

Can a table lamp work on a study desk?

Yes. Several of these are designed as table and desk lamps. For reading or homework, choose one with a fabric shade, which softens glare from the bulb.
