ABOUT TABLE LAMPS
Table lamps are lamps for the home which stand on desks or tables. They are available in an immense variety of styles, including classic, Tiffany, Oriental, and contemporary. They are usually made of aluminium or steel with a brass, chrome, or painted finish. They may also be made of wood, crystal, ceramic, or bamboo.
Apart from choice of materials and finishes, there is a wide choice of functional designs. The simplest table lamps take the form of a single column carrying a traditional lampshade. Other table lamps have hinged or swinging arms, so that the position and the direction of the light can be adjusted. Others are of branched design, carrying multiple lamps.
Some suppliers specialise in low energy table lamps, with the shades specially designed to accommodate low energy or light emitting diode (LED) light sources.
