Metropolis Table Lamp With Black Shade

The Metropolis Table Lamp fuses architectural clarity with purposeful task light. An open-frame metal body creates sculptural negative space, while a gold swivel fixture supports a matte black dome shade for precise, downward illumination.

Resting on a circular plinth, Metropolis feels equal parts gallery object and working lamp, an effortless upgrade for desks, consoles, and bedside tables.

Design and Materials

• Frame: Geometric open structure in durable black metal, bold yet visually light.
• Hardware: The gold-toned swivel joint pivots smoothly to direct the beam.
• Shade: Black dome interior engineered for focused, low-glare lighting.
• Base: Round plinth provides stable balance with a compact footprint.

Lighting and Performance

• Bulb: 1 × (per your spec; warm, dimmable LED recommended).
• Beam: Controlled downlight concentrates brightness onto pages, keyboards, or crafts.
• Comfort: Matte black shade reduces reflections for eye-friendly sessions.

Placement

• Placement: Home offices, studio desks, entry consoles, or nightstands where directional light is essential.
• Ergonomics: Position the shade 30–45° from the line of sight to minimise screen glare.

Benefits

• Design impact: The open frame adds drama without visual bulk, great for smaller rooms.
• Accurate lighting: The swivel fixture fine-tunes the angle for writing, sketching, or reading.
• Easy styling: Black and gold pair with timber, stone, leather, and brass accents.
• Low maintenance: A simple wipe-down keeps metal surfaces pristine.
