Frequently Asked Questions

What are table lamps used for?

Table lamps provide focused and ambient lighting to help illuminate living rooms, bedrooms, home offices, and other areas where overhead lighting may not be ideal. A table lamp adds both practical light and decorative style to a surface such as a console or side table.

How do I choose the right size table lamp?

Choosing the right size means thinking about the surface it will sit on and how you plan to use the light. A table lamp that is too tall or too small can look out of balance. A lamp that feels in proportion with its table and the surrounding furniture helps the lighting feel natural and intentional.

Where should I place a table lamp for the best lighting?

Placement depends on your needs. A lamp by a reading chair should be positioned so that the light falls gently over your book or workspace. A lamp beside a sofa or in a corner can add warm ambient lighting. A lamp on a bedside table should be low enough to offer soft light without glaring directly into your eyes.

What kind of bulbs should I use in a table lamp?

A table lamp works well with LED bulbs because they provide steady, energy efficient light and come in a range of colour temperatures. Warm white bulbs create a cozy, relaxed feel, while brighter bulbs help with tasks such as reading or working. Choosing the right bulb affects both light quality and ambience.

Can a table lamp be used as the main light in a room?

A well chosen table lamp can provide enough light to serve as the primary source in smaller rooms or specific seating areas. In larger spaces, table lighting is most effective when combined with other fixtures to create balanced illumination throughout the room.

How do style and design affect table lighting?

The style of a table lamp influences both the look and feel of the space. Smooth modern finishes and minimalist shapes can complement contemporary decor, while classic shapes and fabric shades add warmth and timeless appeal. Choosing a lamp that matches your room’s aesthetic enhances the overall design.

Are table lamps easy to move and reposition?

Yes. One of the benefits of a table lamp is its portability. You can easily move a lamp to a new surface or room when you want to update your layout or adjust your lighting. This flexibility lets you experiment with light placement until you find the ideal effect.

Do table lamps need regular maintenance?

Table lamps need only occasional care. Wiping the base and shade to remove dust will help the light shine clearly. Checking bulbs and replacing them when they dim keeps your table lighting looking and performing its best.

What should I consider when using table lighting for reading or tasks?

For reading or task lighting, a lamp that provides bright, focused illumination without harsh glare is ideal. Positioning the lamp so the light is directed toward your book or workspace helps reduce eye strain and improves visibility. Using bulbs that offer clear, consistent light supports comfort during long periods of use.

Does the shape of the lamp shade matter?

Yes. Lamp shades influence how light spreads into the room. A wider shade often casts broader, softer light for relaxed ambience. A more focused shade directs the light downward for clearer illumination of a surface. The shape and material of the shade help shape the quality of table lighting and the mood of the space.
