The Belmore is a traditional tripod-style floor lamp with atimber-look finish teak or walnut tone under a400mm linen shade, standing 1,600mm tall.

Timber look, not solid timber

The finish reproduces the colour and grain of teak or walnut. It is a finish rather than asolid timber, which is worth being clear about: it means consistent colour, lower weight and alower price than a solid timber lamp, and it means you should not sand or oil it.

A linen shade and 60W of headroom

The shade is linen, so the light comes out warm and soft rather than directed. It takes asingle E27 globe up to 60W more than double the 25W limit common inthis range and no globe is supplied. That extra headroom is useful under alinen shade, which absorbs more light than glass.

Teak or walnut

Teak is the lighter, warmer, mid-century tone. Walnut is darker and reads more traditional. Both carrythe same shade, so the base sets the character.

Where it works

• Beside a sofa or armchair, as a warm ambient light.
• Living room corners a ceiling fitting does not reach.
• Bedrooms, as a softer alternative to an overhead light.
• Mid-century and traditional interiors.
