Small Table Lamp, Exposed Bulb on a Wood Base 13 cm

A Solid Wood Base, a Brass Holder and an Exposed Bulb at Just 13 by 24 Centimeters

Strip a table lamp back far enough and three things are left: the base, the holder and the bulb. That is the whole object here. A block of solid wood, a brass holder with a rotary knob screwed straight onto it, and the bulb sitting in the open with nothing over it. There is no shade to soften the source, so the lamp gives a small warm radius rather than a pool on a surface, which is what makes it an accent rather than a working light. The scale is the second decision: 13 cm across and 24 cm tall puts it well under an ordinary table lamp, so it fits a nightstand, a desk corner or a narrow console and leaves room for everything else on the surface. Two base shapes are offered, a turned round disc and a squared block, and because both are cut from solid wood the grain is never twice the same.

Questions about this product

Everything you need to know about this product.

Is a bulb included?

The holder takes a standard E26 or E27 screw base and the bulb is left to you, which matters more here than on a shaded lamp: the bulb is what you see. A warm Edison filament shows its coils and suits the wood and brass; a frosted LED gives the same outline with less glare. Keep the wattage low, since nothing diffuses the source.

How small is it really?

13 cm across and 24 cm tall, which is about the height of a paperback stood on end. It sits on a nightstand, a desk corner or a narrow console without claiming the surface, and it is the size you buy two or three of for a run along a counter rather than one large fixture.

What is the difference between the round and the squared base?

Only the shape of the wood block. The round base is a turned disc with a soft edge and reads quieter. The squared base is a cut block with visible corners and reads more graphic against a plain wall. Both are solid wood in the same tone and both take the same brass holder.

How is it switched on?

Two ways. A rotary knob sits on the brass holder itself, which is the one you reach for when the lamp is next to you, and an inline switch sits on the cord for when it is further away. The lamp plugs into an ordinary outlet, so no wiring is involved.

Which plug should I choose?

US for the United States and Canada, UK for the United Kingdom and Ireland, EU for most of continental Europe. The lamp runs on AC 110 to 240V, so only the plug changes between the three options and the lamp itself is identical.

How do I look after the wood and the brass?

Wipe the wood with a barely damp cloth and dry it straight afterwards; solid wood marks if water is left to sit. The brass holder takes a dry soft cloth. Let the bulb cool before handling it, because an exposed lamp runs hot where a shaded one does not.

Choosing the Bulb, Switching It On and Caring for the Wood and the Brass

The bulb choice carries more weight on an open lamp than on a shaded one, because there is nothing between the source and the room. The holder takes a standard E26 or E27 screw base and the bulb is not supplied: a warm Edison filament shows its coils and sits with the wood and brass, while a frosted LED keeps the same silhouette with less glare. Keep the wattage modest either way. There are two switches, a rotary knob on the holder for when the lamp is within reach and an inline switch on the 150 cm cord for when it is not, and the lamp plugs into an ordinary outlet with no wiring. It carries an IP20 rating, so it belongs in a dry indoor room. Wipe the wood with a barely damp cloth and dry it at once, dust the brass with a dry cloth, and let the bulb cool before you handle it.
