Why have straight lines when you could have curves? This table lamp is saved from taking itself too seriously by the scallop detailing on the linen lampshade, picked out beautifully in red, which gives this a fun yet elegant feel and demonstrates perfectly TikTok's 'unexpected red' theory. The trend for scalloped shapes first emerged during the 1920s, when it found popularity as part of the Art Deco movement, and since then it’s been applied to everything from mirrors to table linen to bathroom tiling in our enthusiasm to bring this whimsical little wave effect into our homes.
This piece allows you to introduce the trend to your home subtly, if it's not a style you’ve experimented with before. You may choose to double up, with two lamps that echo each other at key anchor points across your living room, or it may be that you set your signature style with a solo piece on a hallway table or console to lend a soft, welcoming glow.
The red lip of the linen shade contrasts beautifully with the deep green mottled effect base, both of which enhance the natural tones of the lampshade. The on / off switch is on the black flex, which is hidden behind the base, allowing the clean lines of the design to flow uninterrupted. This is a stunning piece that brings a modern take on one of the most recognisable eras in recent history into your home, bring with warmth and joy.
