Slender and architectural, this fluted table lamp brings together a base of real travertine, a stem of reeded solid wood and a shade of fine linen. It measures 30 cm across and 54 cm high, and plugs straight into a socket. Alborra chose it for the coherence of its natural materials, from stone to textile.

A fluted table lamp in travertine, solid wood and linen

This fluted table lamp reads from bottom to top like a small piece of architecture. At the base, the mineral foot in authentic travertine, with a textured, natural surface, gives the seat and the visual weight. In the centre, the stem in fluted solid wood rises with its vertical grooves, which catch the light and set a rhythm along the silhouette; it ends in a finial of the same wood. The whole is crowned with a shade in superior linen that filters the light and gives it a soft tone. At 54 cm high and 30 cm across, this fluted table lamp has the size of a generous console or bedside light. The fluted table lamp brings height to a low piece of furniture and suits a traditional room as well as clean contemporary lines. The stem and the finial come in several finishes, walnut, wood, black or white, which allows you to match the lamp to your other woods or to make a clear contrast. The fluting is on the wood; the travertine base below is left as natural stone. To join stone, wood and natural textile is a sure way of making a warm and coherent atmosphere, and the ribbed, reeded grooves add a quiet detail to it. A fluted table lamp keeps the eye moving upward, from the grain of the stone to the grooves of the wood and the soft weave of the shade, and each part is allowed to be itself.

Cable, bulb cap and dimmer on a fluted table lamp

The practical side is as carefully made as the look. This fluted table lamp plugs into a socket by a 150 cm cable with a push-button switch. The bulb cap is a standard E27 Edison screw (ES), and the recommended wattage is 40 W at most with an incandescent bulb, or the LED equivalent; the bulb is not included. The lamp can be dimmed, provided you use an external dimmer and a dimmable bulb, two things to arrange separately. The fluted table lamp is for indoor use only. The overall dimensions are 30 cm in diameter by 54 cm in height. The cable of 150 cm leaves a comfortable margin to move the piece of furniture away from the wall socket, which gives real freedom in arranging a room. You do not have to put the fluted table lamp close to the wall. These technical choices make the lamp easy to put into service: you place it, plug it in, and choose a bulb to suit the mood you want. A fluted table lamp of this height does best with a bulb of moderate size, so that the linen shade is lit evenly and not at one point. The base is stone, so the lamp has a firm footing, and it deserves a level, stable surface that is deep enough for its 30 cm width.

Setting the light of a fluted table lamp with a dimmer

To adjust the light of this fluted table lamp, you have two options. You can use the push-button on the cable for simple on and off, or you can add an external dimmer and a dimmable bulb to set the strength to the time of day. The linen shade of the fluted table lamp spreads the light softly: at full strength it gives a comfortable reading light, and at a low setting it creates an evening mood. Remember the limit of 40 W at most with an incandescent bulb, or the LED equivalent, which frames your choice of bulb. For decoration, a fluted table lamp 54 cm tall belongs on a hall console, a sideboard, a bedroom chest of drawers or a bedside table wide enough to take it. Choose the finish of the stem, walnut, wood, black or white, to suit your furniture: walnut and wood suit warm interiors, while black and white give a firmer graphic contrast. Remember to keep the fluted table lamp for indoor use. Under a ceiling of 2.40 m, a lamp of 54 cm on a piece of furniture remains well below any light fitting above it. Dust the linen gently with a soft brush. Set on a console or a chest of drawers, a fluted table lamp is seen at its best, with the grooves of the stem at eye level.

Authentic travertine, reeded solid wood and fine linen: this fluted table lamp brings together three natural materials in an elegant outline. Add it to your Alborra selection to bring height and warmth to your interior.
