Touch Control Bedside Lamp, Wood 17 x 20 cm

A Crested Head Carved From Solid Wood Above a Body That Lights as a Whole

The top of this lamp is a piece of sculpture. It is carved from solid wood as a crested head: a beaked profile, a row of spines running down the back, and a single polished brass bead set where an eye would be. Below it sits a short white acrylic cylinder that lights as one soft form rather than through a shade, so nothing bright is ever visible and the glow simply spills out beneath the head. The proportions are the point. The carved head is the larger of the two halves, which is what makes the object read as a small figure sitting on the table rather than as a lamp with a decorative top. It is genuinely small, 17 cm across and 20 cm tall, sized for a nightstand, a shelf or the corner of a desk. Three finishes are offered: a pale natural wood that shows the carving most clearly, a mid brown walnut, and a black that turns the head into a silhouette.

Questions about this product

Everything you need to know about this product.

Where is the touch control?

On the carved wood head. A tap turns the lamp on and off and holding it runs the brightness up and down, so there is no button to find and no switch on a cord. The dimming is stepless, which means it travels smoothly rather than stepping between fixed levels.

How small is it?

17 cm across and 20 cm tall, so it takes about the footprint of a coffee mug and a half. That suits a nightstand, a shelf or the corner of a desk, and it is far too small to light a room on its own.

Is the head really carved wood?

Yes, solid wood, carved as a crested head with a beaked profile and a row of spines, with a polished brass bead set as the eye. Because each one is carved individually the grain runs differently on every lamp, and on the pale finish that is plainly visible.

How long does it run off the battery?

It holds a built in battery charged over the USB cable supplied, so the lamp works away from an outlet. You can also leave the cable connected and treat it as a corded lamp, on AC 110 to 240V.

Which finish should I choose?

Natural wood is the palest and shows the carving and the grain most clearly. Walnut is mid brown and warmer. Black turns the head into a silhouette above the lit body, which is the most graphic of the three. The acrylic body is white on all of them.

How do I clean it?

Wipe the wood head with a barely damp cloth following the grain and dry it at once, working carefully around the spines and the beak where dust collects. The acrylic body takes a soft dry cloth only, since solvents cloud acrylic permanently.

Stepless Touch Dimming in the Wood Head and a Battery That Frees the Lamp

Every control is in the carved head, and there is only one. A tap on the wood turns the lamp on or off; holding it runs the brightness through its whole range and stops wherever you lift your finger. The dimming is stepless rather than stepped, which matters on a lamp this size because most of its working life is spent low, as a marker in a dark room rather than as a reading light. The battery is built in and charges over the USB cable supplied, so nothing tethers the lamp to an outlet and it can be carried to a bathroom, a hallway or a bedside in another room; leave the cable attached instead and it behaves as an ordinary corded lamp on AC 110 to 240V. For care, wipe the wood along the grain with a barely damp cloth and dry it at once, working around the spines and the beak where dust gathers, and use a soft dry cloth on the acrylic body, since solvents cloud it for good.
