Know before you buy
No, this lamp is not dimmable. It is designed for a standard on-off operation.
The lamp is designed to cast a soft, indirect ambient light. Because of the metal shade, the light is directed downward, making it ideal for creating a warm, focused glow on a buffet or console table.
The lamp features a solid black marble base, which provides significant weight and stability to support the 36-inch height. It is well-balanced for use on flat surfaces like sideboards or entry tables.
Yes, because the base is crafted from natural marble, the white veining patterns will be unique to each individual lamp. This ensures your piece has a one-of-a-kind character.
At 36 inches tall, this lamp is quite elevated compared to standard bedside lamps. It is best suited for buffet tables, entryways, or console tables where the height can properly illuminate a surface without overwhelming the space.
