Birdland large table lamp, crystal drops, striped lampshade, 114.3 cm

Striped stem, crystal drops and gilded finial

A two-tier star base supports a slim stem made of striped segments with a faded patina. Higher up, a cup of gilded leaves, with a small red flower, holds a crown of cut K9 crystal drops. The conical parchment lampshade alternates cream and taupe bands with a crackled look, beneath a gold-leaf finial.

An E27 lampholder under a parchment cone

The E27 bulb, 60 W maximum, is to be purchased separately. The cream bands let the light through, while the taupe bands hold it back: the glow stays soft and falls back onto the crystals. Plug-in connection, without dimming. A 2700 K LED keeps the parchment in amber tones. IP20: living room, bedroom or hallway, not for damp rooms.

A tall lamp with a small footprint

Its 22.9 cm base fits on a narrow surface, but its 114.3 cm height needs free space above: choose a low piece of furniture, away from a wall shelf. It weighs 4.05 kg; place it at the back of the surface, against the wall, rather than at the edge of the furniture.
