Collection: Table Lamps

A table lamp is the easiest way to add warmth and layered light to a room. Our collection of modern and designer table lamps spans sculptural bedside lamps, console and accent lamps, and statement designs — pieces that light a space beautifully and look just as good switched off.

What size table lamp do you need?

Proportion is everything. A living-room or console table lamp usually looks best at a total height of 26–32 inches. On a nightstand, choose a lamp whose shade sits near eye level when you're seated in bed — roughly 24–28 inches tall. As a rule, the lamp should be no more than 1.5 times the height of the surface it sits on.

Where to use table lamps

Flank a bed with a matching pair for balanced bedside light, place one on a console or entry table for a warm welcome, or use a sculptural lamp as an accent on a shelf or sideboard. Layering table lamps with your main ceiling light is what makes a room feel finished.
