Whether you prefer to unwind in the evening with a good book, play games on your phone, or catch up on the day with your partner, the right bedside lighting can make all the difference. Your choice of lamp may not just feature the right form and functionality for your purposes – it may also make a statement. An unusual designer table lamp can be the centrepiece of your room, a talking point. It can be a complement to your interior design theme or even a deliberately clashing contrast to it.

Today, lamps can be in a wide range of styles, from simple designs that offer soft ambient lighting to bright adjustable options to illuminate whatever task is at hand. From contemporary to industrial to rustic, made from studio glass, handcrafted metals or unique materials with exquisite hand-applied finishes - there’s something for every style.
