The Ingrid is a floor lamp with a marble base and a gold arm reaching460mm out from it. That reach is the design: the shade sits over a chair or atable rather than beside it, so the light lands where you are, not next to you.

An offset arm needs a heavy base

Reaching 460mm sideways at 1,550mm tall puts real leverage on the base. The marble iswhat stops it toppling it is a structural choice, not just a decorative one. It also means thelamp is heavy to move, so decide the position before you carry it in.

Reach over the furniture, not around it

The point of an offset floor lamp is to stand behind or beside a sofa and put the shade over theseat. That gives reading light without a side table, which is useful where there is no room for one, orwhere a cable across the floor would be a nuisance.

40W of capacity, higher than most

It takes a single E27 globe up to 40W more headroom than the 25Wcommon across this range and no globe is supplied. For reading, that extracapacity is worth using.

Where it works

• Behind or beside a sofa, with the shade over the seat.
• Reading chairs where there is no room for a side table.
• Bedrooms, reaching over a bed as an alternative to bedside lamps.
• Rentals, since it is double insulated and simply plugs in.
