The Akron Large is a 660mm table lamp with arectangular gold-lined shade over a laser-cut deco base on marble,in black or white with antique gold.

Gold lining changes the light, not just the look

A gold-lined shade reflects warm rather than neutral, so the light that falls on the table has anoticeably warmer cast than the same globe in a white-lined shade. It is a small thing that shows on a console or a sideboard it makes the pool of light feel richer.

Marble, then metal

The base is marble with a laser-cut metal deco pattern above it. Marble gives theweight and the stability; the cut-work gives the lamp its shadow-play when lit. Both are why this readsas a considered piece rather than a generic table lamp.

Rectangular, so it sits against a wall

A rectangular shade on a 220 110mm footprint suits a narrow console ora sideboard flat against a wall, where a round shade would overhang. Worth knowing if depth is yourconstraint.

What difference does the gold lining make?

It reflects warm rather than neutral, so the pool of light on the table has a richer cast than the same globe in a white-lined shade.
