The Brizo TL is a 400mm table lamp with a ribbed clear glass shade on anantique brass iron base two E14 globes at 25W each, 50W total, notsupplied.

Two lamp holders, not one. Our record lists25W, which is the figure per globe. Two E14 holders at 25W is50W total and you need to buy two globes.

Ribbed clear glass, which means you will see the globes

The shade is clear and ribbed, not frosted. Ribbingrefracts light into vertical lines rather than diffusing it, so the lampsparkles and throws a pattern and the globes inside areplainly visible. That is the Art Deco effect it is built for, and it makes the globechoice part of the design: buy two decorative E14 globes, not plain ones. Clearcandle or golden-tinted globes suit it; a bare frosted globe will look like an oversight.

Antique brass and industrial weight

3.3kg on a 180mm base at 400mm tall and 300mmwide. That is heavy for its size, and it is what makes the lamp read asDeco-industrial rather than decorative a glass shade on a light base looksfragile; on this one it looks mounted. The finish isanodised antique brass.

It does not change colour. Our record carries acolour-changing flag against it. It takes two ordinary E14 globes and includesnone. This is the fourth lamp in this vendor found carrying the same false flag.

You almost certainly do not need an electrician. It isClassII double insulated on an 1,800mmcable. The old page carried an electrician requirement that belongs to hard-wiredfittings.

One thing we could not settle

The old copy called this the Brizo touch table lamp, butevery specification source says dimming is globe dependent andno touch control appears anywhere in the data. We arenot claiming a touch switch on that evidence. If touch dimming is what youwant from it, ask us to confirm with Telbix before you order. On the specifications as theystand: fit two dimmable E14 globes and a plug-in or inline dimmer.

Where it works

• Sideboards and consoles, where a 300mm shade has room.
• Beside dark timber or blackened metal, which antique brass suits.
• As a lit object ribbed clear glass sparkles rather than glows.
• Not a soft bedside light the globes are visible and the shade refracts.

Questions

How many globes does it take?

Two E14 at 25W each 50W total, not supplied. Our record lists 25W, which is the per-globe figure. Buy two.

Will I see the globes?

Yes. The shade is clear and ribbed, not frosted it refracts light into vertical lines rather than diffusing it, so the globes are plainly visible. Buy two decorative E14 globes; a bare frosted globe will look like an oversight.

Is it a touch lamp?

We cannot confirm that. The old copy called it the Brizo touch table lamp, but every specification source says dimming is globe dependent and no touch control appears anywhere in the data. We are not claiming one ask us to confirm with Telbix if that is what you want from it.

Does it change colour?

No. Our record carries a colour-changing flag, which is wrong it takes two ordinary E14 globes and includes none.

Do I need an electrician?

It is double insulated with an 1,800mm cable, so almost certainly not. The old page carried an electrician requirement that belongs to hard-wired fittings.

Can I dim it?

On the specifications as they stand, only with dimmable globes and a plug-in or inline dimmer and both globes must be dimmable, or one will stay at full output.

Is it heavy?

3.3kg on a 180mm base, which is heavy for a 400mm lamp. That weight is what makes a glass shade read as mounted rather than fragile.
