Introducing our new Hero Lamp – a shade and base combo!!! When you have a fabulous fabric, you don’t want the base to be the scene stealer, do you?

This new lamp is absolutely perfect for showcasing a stunning piece of fabric!! The sleek, simple, pared-back styling of this shade and base makes it a perfect combo for just about anywhere….living spaces, studies, bedsides and children’s rooms.

The base:
The beautiful solid oak* bases have been custom made just for us to our own design including a subtle bevelled edge at the bottom! The bases are a natural finish and perfect to be left just as they are, or they can be waxed or stained to suit your needs. *The oak used for our bases is sustainably sourced and is Select Grade, the highest quality available. The cord and plug comes in a choice of two colours: black or white
