Know before you buy
No, the shade is sold separately. This design choice allows you to select a shade shape, color, and fabric that best complements your specific interior style.
The lamp is compatible with bulbs up to a maximum of 150 watts. You can use incandescent, LED, or CFL bulbs, provided they fit the standard socket and do not exceed the wattage limit.
The ceramic body features a glazed finish that provides medium reflectivity. This gives the lamp a soft, polished look that catches the light without being overly glossy or mirror-like.
The Formosa Lamp measures 7 inches in diameter at its widest point and stands 30 inches tall. Its slender, architectural profile makes it well-suited for console tables, nightstands, or side tables.
The clear acrylic base is an integrated part of the lamp's architectural design and is not intended to be removed. It is designed to provide a lightweight, modern foundation that complements the ceramic body.
