Living room floor lamp | Argenis

This fabric reading floor lamp pairs a round 50 cm shade with a brushed steel frame. The adjustable arm and height range of 210 to 230 cm place the light exactly where you read, without lighting the whole room.

What light does this fabric reading floor lamp give?

The fabric of the shade filters the brightness of the bulb and softens the light on the pages, while the brushed steel stays discreet in the decor. The source is not included: the light colour depends on the E27 bulb you choose, LED compatible, 40 W maximum.

• Shade 50 cm in diameter and 20 cm high
• Metal and fabric
• E27 socket
• On/off switch on the cord

Where to install this floor lamp in the living room?

A fabric reading floor lamp goes directly above an armchair or at the end of a sofa, without drilling into a wall. The 42 cm base and the 320 cm cable leave you free to move it from one corner to another. To find the right size for your room, see the ideal height for a floor lamp, room by room.

• Height 210 to 230 cm, adjustable
• Base 42 cm in diameter
• Cable 320 cm
• Adjustable and tilting arm

This model sits naturally alongside living room floor lamps, to compare with the Arched Floor Lamp if you are looking for light reaching further over the sofa.

How to adjust this floor lamp for comfortable reading?

First adjust the height, then tilt the arm so that the shade hangs over your shoulder without hiding the book. There is no built-in dimmer, but a dimmable bulb combined with an external dimmer works perfectly.

• Adjustable height from 210 to 230 cm
• Adjustable and tilting arm
• Switch control on the cord
• E27 bulb not included, 40 W max

Brushed steel and fabric shade: what does it look like in a modern interior?
