Table lamps

Sometimes all a room needs is the soft glow of a table lamp to make it feel warm and inviting. Whether you’re after a dimmable table lamp for a cosy evening in, a bedside table lamp for your nightstand, or a larger table lamp to brighten up a corner, there’s something to suit every space. Perfect for movie nights, late-night reading or adding a relaxed feel to your living room, hallway or bedroom, our table lamps come in a range of styles to help you find one that feels right at home.

How big should a bedside table lamp be?

To get the best lighting experience from a table or desk lamp, aim to have the middle of the shade at eye-level, so you don’t get any glare directly from the bulb. The bulb itself should also be far enough away from the surface of the table to allow an even distribution of light.

How do you pick a bedside table lamp?

• The best bedside table lamps cast a soft, gentle glow. Anything too bright can make it harder to relax before sleep. It’s also worth thinking about the size of your bedside table, as a large lamp can feel out of place on a smaller cabinet. Touch bedside lamps are a great option too, especially when you want to switch the light off easily at the end of the day.

• ÅRSTID is one of our favourite large table lamps. Its tall, timeless design works beautifully in bedrooms, hallways and living rooms, and you can pair a few together to create a cohesive look throughout the home.

• If your bedside lamps will be one of the main light sources in your bedroom, it’s worth choosing a larger design with bright LED bulbs. But if you only use your nightstand lamp for smaller tasks, like setting an alarm or winding down with a book, a decorative small lamp can give you the light you need without taking up too much space.
