Some VERY nice table lamps for budgets big and small

Like a ‘statement chair’ a table lamp is one of those things I find VERY hard to resist. Despite not having a single surface left in our house to plonk another lamp on, I instead park them in my thoughts ready for future picking. For this article, I have selected a range of table lights based purely on looks! Some are ‘affordable’, some are just for admiring from afar. Regardless, I hope they all bring light to your day. Pun very much intended

1. First on the list is the ‘Little Dot Table Lamp’ which I love for many reasons. Firstly, I love a lamp where the whole thing fills with light, instead of just the shade, and it looks as if it emanates a really soft warm light which we love. Secondly, it’s made with plant-based polymers with zero waste manufacturing which we also love! Finally - it’s only $238! Sold.

2. You will notice a large selection of stainless steel lamps in this list, and first up is this very brutalist, very beautiful MCM house Zaha Lamp. I particularly love the generous scale of this lamp. The perfect amount of oversized. I imagine it would look best as a stand-alone lamp rather than a pair. Maybe even up on a big bathroom vanity if you had the space! How cool! It’s currently on sale for $659. Swoon.

3. The Cellu Table Lamp is one of those classic designs re-imagined into a modern day form. I just love its pleated shade. Soft, and sweet. We love her. Price (as I write this it’s on sale): $252

4. If you’re looking for a lamp that’s going to create a bit of attention, the Mush Lamp would be the perfect choice for that. Planted in the right spot in your home, this sculptural lamp is going to turn heads! Price $1,661
