Lighting
The Advantages of Adjustable Lamps
For most of us, decor needs to function. We have a few nice things on display with no purpose other than to look nice, but for the majority of us, the things we have in our home must have a function. Of course, that doesn’t mean they can’t be aesthetically pleasing at the same time. Sofas should be beautiful and comfortable. Cabinets and hutches should store or display objects attractively. Lamps need to illuminate tastefully.
The adjustable lamp takes the functionality of lighting to a higher level, in addition to providing decorative value. You will find a selection of attractive and functional adjustable lamps – floor lamps, table lamps and desk lamps. Each is designed to be adjusted in height, reach or angle, as well as add beauty to your home. Some of our adjustable floor lamps have companion desk or table lamps that are adjustable, too.
Adjustable lamps are available in a variety of styles and finishes to compliment the decor in your living room, dining room, bedrooms and home office. Made from solid brass, styles range from contemporary to classic, with finishes of polished or antiqued brass, satin nickel or antiqued bronze with coordinated shades. Adjustable desk lamps can be adjusted in angle at both the base and top; adjustable table and floor lamps can change in height from just a few inches to over a foot, depending on the model, with a twist of the small, decorative knob. Some of our floor lamps also have a swing arm, so you can adjust where the light falls, in addition to height, easing eyestrain when reading.
Designing with these versatile lamps is simple. Place an adjustable desk or adjustable table lamp on any surface, including a buffet, sideboard or occasional table for a touch of sophistication. Floor lamps can be placed near sofas, loveseats or chairs, in corners or behind objects, where a table might not fit or otherwise isn’t practical. Swing-arm adjustable lamps are great for places where a standard floor lamp may not be a good option.
But, you don’t have to stop there. Use singly, in pairs or take advantage of the design benefits of an adjustable floor lamp and its matching desk or table companion for more possibilities. Place a swing-arm lamp over a sculpture or figurine next to a chair or sofa, and you have a lamp that can do double-duty. An adjustable desk or table lamp is perfect for displaying small objects, such as figurines or pictures in just the right light.
Beautiful in form and function, adjustable lamps are sure to meet your desire for lighting with practicality and elegance.

Kudos to you! Yes, adjustable lamps are very important – and makes things a lot easier! Especially if you want one lamp to do different functions.

I like the fact that an adjustable lamp can be adjusted to project just the right light. I have one in the livingroom and its just right for quiet reading. When I’m done I can swing it back out of the way.

Adjustable desk lamps are important, especially if you need a certain amount of light to work.

That’s a pretty good idea: using an adjustable lamp to highlight something in the room, like a statue…

I have a couple adjustable lamps for the exact reason John has mentioned. I like to read and do my crossword puzzles, but I like the lamp to be out of the way when I am through using it.
