Frequently Asked Questions
What types of lamps are available?
Our lamps collection features table lamps perfect for desks, nightstands, console tables, and side tables, plus floor lamps ideal for reading nooks, living room corners, and beside seating. Styles range from modern minimalist and mid-century to industrial, contemporary, and transitional designs. Materials include metal, ceramic, glass, wood, and mixed media in finishes like matte black, brushed brass, polished chrome, natural wood, and textured ceramics. Each lamp provides functional lighting while serving as a decorative accent piece.
How do I choose the right lamp size?
For table lamps on side tables or nightstands, the lamp should be roughly one-third the width of the table and 24-27 inches tall (including shade) to align with eye level when seated. On console tables or buffets, lamps can be taller (28-34 inches) for dramatic impact. Floor lamps typically stand 58-64 inches tall for reading or 65-72 inches for ambient lighting. Consider the lamp's visual weight—bold designs can feel larger than their actual dimensions. Ensure lamp height doesn't obstruct views or conversation.
Where should I place lamps in my home?
Table lamps work beautifully on nightstands for bedside reading, side tables beside sofas for ambient lighting, desks for task lighting, console tables in entryways for welcoming glow, and buffets or sideboards for decorative accent lighting. Floor lamps suit living room corners, beside reading chairs, flanking sofas, or in spaces lacking overhead lighting. Layer lamps with chandeliers, pendants, and sconces from our modern lighting collection for complete illumination.
What type of light bulbs should I use?
LED bulbs are recommended for energy efficiency, long life, and minimal heat output. Choose warm white (2700-3000K) for cozy, inviting ambiance in living rooms and bedrooms, or cool white (3500-4100K) for task lighting in offices. Check your lamp's maximum wattage rating—never exceed it. Dimmable LED bulbs offer flexibility to adjust brightness for different activities and moods. Consider smart bulbs for convenient control via apps or voice assistants.
Can I mix different lamp styles in one room?
Absolutely! Mixing lamp styles adds visual interest and personality when done thoughtfully. The key is finding common threads—similar finishes, complementary colors, or consistent design era. Pair a modern table lamp with an industrial floor lamp if both feature metal finishes. Mix ceramic and wood lamps in similar tones. Vary heights and scales for dynamic layering. Coordinate lamp styles with your furniture and home decor for a curated, intentional look.
How do I care for lamps?
Dust lamp bases regularly with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For metal finishes, polish occasionally with appropriate cleaners to maintain shine. Clean glass or ceramic bases with a damp cloth and dry immediately. Vacuum fabric shades with a brush attachment or use a lint roller. For paper or delicate shades, dust gently with a soft brush. Always unplug lamps before cleaning. Replace bulbs promptly when they burn out, and check cords periodically for wear or damage.
