Lumenorth Amber Glass Table Lamp

Amber is named for the colour it casts. A wide, rounded shade in smoked amber glass sits on a solid stone base, and once lit it turns an ordinary bulb into a low golden pool rather than a bright point you have to look away from.

There are two sizes. The larger version is built for a living room, on a side table beside a sofa or on a sideboard where it anchors one end of the room. The smaller suits a bedroom, a kitchen shelf or a narrow console, where the same shape is wanted at a gentler scale. Amber glass shifts light towards gold, which is why this shape keeps reappearing in rooms designed for long, dark evenings: it makes a space feel considerably warmer than the thermostat ever does, and it flatters both the room and the people sitting in it.

The stone base gives the lamp real weight, so it sits firmly on a surface and will not skate about when a cable is tugged. Buy one as a bedside lamp, or a pair at either end of a sideboard to light a whole living room in the evening without switching on the ceiling fitting at all.
