Mid-Century Modern Mushroom Table Lamp | Gold and Black

Mid-Century Modern Mushroom Table Lamp | Gold and Black

A glossy black dome on a gold-tone stem, standing 43 cm tall and 35 cm wide. This mushroom table lamp is a small piece of sculpture that happens to give good light. The bulb is included and it plugs into the wall, so you can set it down and switch it on. Choose warm white, cold white or tricolor light.

The design style: mid-century modern
Mid-century modern design grew in the 1950s and 1960s, when designers wanted lighting to be simple, rounded and made for living rooms. Mushroom lamps became one of its best-loved shapes: a wide dome, a tapering stem and a heavy base. This lamp is mid-century inspired and newly made. The glossy black shade gives it a strong silhouette, and the gold-tone base adds warmth and a touch of glamour.

Why it's worth it
A good table lamp needs to look right and light the room well. This one has a wide dome that shades the bulb and throws a pool of light down onto the surface below, so it works for reading, relaxing and setting a mood. The bulb is included, so there is nothing else to buy. At 43 cm tall it is big enough to anchor a bedside table or sideboard and small enough not to crowd it. It uses a standard E14 bulb, so replacements are easy to find.

For homeowners
Put one on a bedside table, a desk, a console table or a bookshelf and it becomes the focal point of the surface. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, studies and hallways, and is designed for spaces of about 5-10 square metres. Use a pair either side of a bed for a balanced, hotel-style look. Choose warm white (3000K) for cosy evenings, cold white (6000K) for a crisp, bright feel, or tricolor light for flexibility. It also makes a good gift for anyone who loves design.

For designers and trade
A decorative table lamp for boutique hotel bedrooms, restaurants, bars, showrooms and show homes. The black and gold palette works with brass, walnut, marble and velvet, and the compact footprint of 35 cm leaves room on a bedside table. It runs on 90-260V mains power, so it suits projects in different countries. The E14 fitting keeps bulb stocking simple. Check the plug type for your market before you specify it.

Where to use it
Bedside tables, desks, sideboards, console tables, shelves and reception counters. It looks best against a plain wall or a bookshelf, where the black dome stands out.
