Ascent polished nickel floor lamp, pyramid-shaped stem and anthracite lampshade

A mirrored stem that bounces the light around

This model features the tapered pyramid of the Ascent range, here in polished nickel-plated steel. The shiny faces reflect the walls and neighbouring lamps, so the base looks slimmer than it really is. A strong contrast comes from the lampshade: a dark grey fabric cylinder with a silky sheen, supplied with the base and finished with a metal finial.

Bulb and recommended rooms

The floor lamp takes one E27 bulb of up to 60 W, to be purchased separately. The dark fabric lets a soft, subdued light filter through, directed mostly upwards and downwards: a warm white LED bulb is enough for ambient lighting. With its IP20 rating, it is intended for dry living spaces. Class I: earthed plug required.

Size and weight

At 181 cm tall and 46 cm wide, the size suits a standard ceiling height without overwhelming the room. The base weighs 11.7 kg, which anchors it firmly to the floor, even on a thick rug.
