This cone-shade cordless table lamp is made of aluminium alloy with a brushed brass finish, and pairs its gold-toned look with an umbrella-type shade that spreads light through 360°. It stands 29 cm high with a shade 7 cm across, charges by USB-C and is adjusted by touch. Alborra intends it for lounge tables and covered terraces alike.

A gold-toned cone-shade cordless table lamp with an umbrella shade

From the first glance, this cone-shade cordless table lamp stands out for its silhouette: a fine, slender stem topped with a conical shade that the listing describes as an umbrella shade. The shape of the cone-shade cordless table lamp is not only aesthetic, it serves the light: it spreads the illumination through 360° evenly, so the lamp lights the whole table around it instead of aiming the beam one way. The body is in aluminium alloy with a brushed brass finish, a quiet, warm gold that catches the light without dazzling, while the diffuser is acrylic for a soft glow. At 29 cm high with a shade 7 cm across, the cone-shade cordless table lamp keeps slim proportions that let it slip onto a restaurant table, a café counter or a hall console without crowding. Because it is cordless, it is set down without a thought for the nearest socket, a real comfort when laying a table or rearranging a lounge. The uses named in the listing, lounge, bedroom, restaurant, café, covered terrace and reading corner, give a good idea of its versatility. A cone-shade cordless table lamp so graphic fits contemporary schemes as well as more retro ones, where brass has long been a classic. Its slender stem leaves the table free for plates, glasses or books, which makes the cone-shade cordless table lamp a discreet companion for meals and for long reading.

Battery, USB-C and brightness memory in a cone-shade cordless table lamp

The technology of this cone-shade cordless table lamp is designed for simplicity. It uses integrated LEDs that offer three colour-temperature modes, from 2700 K to 4500 K, from warm white to neutral white by way of a soft warm light. Dimming is continuous, from 25 % to 100 %, and the lamp keeps in memory the last brightness level chosen: when you switch on again, you find your preferred setting without having to redo it. The power of the cone-shade cordless table lamp is 0 to 5 W, at 5 V. The energy comes from a rechargeable lithium battery, charged through a USB-C port plugged into an adapter, a computer or a power bank. A useful feature: the cone-shade cordless table lamp can still be used while it charges, so you need not switch it off when the battery runs low. The running time is given in several hours of light, depending on the brightness chosen: the softer the light, the longer the lamp lasts. Lastly, the touch button on the base of the cone-shade cordless table lamp carries the memory function and lets you switch on, switch off and set the intensity without searching for a switch. For an electrician, the details are brief: a 5 V USB-C input, 0 to 5 W and no mains wiring, so there is nothing to fix to a wall. The cone-shade cordless table lamp gathers, in a very slim volume, all that is needed to light freely.

Placing your cone-shade cordless table lamp in lounge, café or covered terrace

The main strength of a cone-shade cordless table lamp is that it can change place with the moment. In the lounge, the cone-shade cordless table lamp sits on the sideboard or a side table and makes a halo at eye level. In a bedroom or reading corner, it gives a personal light beside an armchair, set to a low level in the evening. In a restaurant or café, it dresses a table with elegance and moves from table to table as service requires. The listing also mentions the covered terrace: stand it under cover, beneath an awning or a pergola, and bring it indoors in bad weather. To make the most of the running time of the cone-shade cordless table lamp, use low levels when you want a mood, and recharge the lamp by USB-C before a long evening; if the battery weakens, plug it in without switching it off. Because the brightness is remembered, a restaurant can set every lamp once at the level that suits the room, and find it the same at the next service. A few lamps placed at different heights make a soft, decorative scheme of light. Choosing a cone-shade cordless table lamp of this slimness also means rethinking decoration around light rather than around sockets: a sideboard, a windowsill or a serving table each become a possible point of light.

Gold-toned, touch-controlled and fitted with a brightness memory, this cone-shade cordless table lamp gives a 360° light wherever you put it. Add it to your Alborra selection to warm your tables, from the lounge to the covered terrace.
