Tall Table Lamp, Stacked Carved Wood Blocks 87 cm

Carved Wood Blocks Stacked to 87 cm Under a Wide Plain Fabric Drum Shade

The base is built rather than turned. Square blocks of wood are cut and carved one at a time, then stacked so each one sits at a different angle to the one below, and the pile steps out at the bottom onto a square plinth. Because the grain runs across the faces instead of up the column, every face catches the light differently and the stack reads as a set of separate solid pieces. That is also why no two lamps are the same: the tone, the figure of the grain and the exact cut of each block change from one to the next. Above it sits a plain drum 40 cm across, wide enough to balance the mass underneath, and the whole thing stands 87 cm tall, which is small floor lamp height on top of a table. The shade comes in white fabric or black fabric, and the finish is walnut on both.

Questions about this product

Everything you need to know about this product.

How tall is it really?

87 cm from the table to the top of the shade, with a 40 cm shade. Put it on a 75 cm console and the top of the lamp sits above head height for anyone seated, which is what makes it work as the main light in a corner. It is too tall for most nightstands: measure the surface and the ceiling clearance before you commit.

What is the base made of?

Carved wood blocks, stacked and pinned, sitting on a square plinth. Each block is cut and shaped separately, so the corners do not line up from one to the next and the grain runs across the faces. That is the look. It also means two lamps are never identical in tone or in the exact turn of the stack.

Which shade should I choose?

The white fabric lets light through the sides, so the whole shade glows and the room gets a soft general light. The black fabric blocks the sides and sends the light straight up to the ceiling and straight down onto the surface, which is sharper and more dramatic. Same size, same fitting, very different effect.

Is a bulb included?

The holder is a standard E26 or E27 screw base and takes an LED or an Edison filament lamp. Given the height and the 40 cm shade, a lamp of around 800 to 1000 lumens in a warm tone fills the shade properly; anything dimmer looks lost inside it.

Is it stable at that height?

It weighs 7 kg and the mass is in the wood at the bottom, on a square plinth, so the center of gravity stays low. It is still a tall object: keep it back from the edge of a console and run the cord where it cannot be caught.

Does it need an electrician?

It plugs into an ordinary outlet on a 150 cm cord with an inline switch. The plug is chosen at order, US, UK, AU or EU, and the lamp runs on AC 110 to 240V either way.

Where an 87 cm Table Lamp Belongs, and Which Bulb Fills a 40 cm Drum Shade

Height is the reason to choose this lamp and also the thing to check first. On a 75 cm console or sideboard the top of the shade clears head height for anyone seated, which turns one table lamp into the main light of a corner; on a low nightstand the same lamp towers over the bed. Measure the surface, and keep the plinth back from the edge, since the piece weighs 7 kg. The fitting takes a standard E26 or E27 bulb, not supplied. A 40 cm shade needs real output to look right, so aim for roughly 800 to 1000 lumens in a warm tone; a dim lamp leaves the shade looking empty. The white shade glows through the sides and spreads a soft general light, while the black shade closes them and throws the light up and down instead. Plug it into an ordinary outlet, 150 cm of cord with an inline switch, AC 110 to 240V, and dust the wood with a dry cloth.
