Product details
Description
A small table lamp with a linen shade and an inline dimmer. Warm enough at low output to read by without lighting the whole room.
Linen diffuses light more softly than a paper or plastic shade, and the dimmer sits inline on the cord where your hand already is rather than on the base where you have to feel for it.
At the bottom of its range it lights a chair without lighting the room, which is the useful trick for a lamp this size. Any E26 bulb fits, so you can set the warmth yourself.
Ten inches across and nineteen tall is bedside and side-table scale: tall enough to light a book, short enough not to shine into the eyes of someone sitting next to it.
The ceramic body is made in Portugal and the shade attaches with a harp and finial, which is the standard fitting, so a replacement shade in twenty years is a shop purchase rather than a hunt.
Care and safety
Dust the shade with a lint roller rather than a cloth, which pushes dust into a linen weave instead of lifting it off. Wipe the ceramic with a damp cloth. Lift the shade off by the finial rather than pulling on the fabric, which distorts the frame.

Clear details for Lumen Table Lamp
I chose Lumen Table Lamp after comparing the practical details instead of relying on the product photo alone. Two facts were especially useful: materials — Ceramic body, linen shade, brass fittings; and dimensions — 10 in diameter; height 19 in. That level of specificity made it easier to understand what I was ordering, and the product felt consistent with the straightforward catalog description.
A considered everyday choice
The information for Lumen Table Lamp answered the questions I had before ordering. The catalog gives two useful references: assembly requirement — No — shade attaches by hand; and indoor outdoor — Indoor. Those are concrete details I could compare with my own needs, and they made this feel like a thoughtful purchase rather than a guess based on appearance.
Useful product information
What stood out about Lumen Table Lamp was how much useful product information was available. I paid particular attention to care instructions: Dust the shade with a lint roller. Wipe the ceramic with a damp cloth. I also checked included items: Lamp base, Linen shade, Harp and finial. Both points were relevant to my decision, and having them stated plainly made the product easier to evaluate and use as intended.
The practical details helped
I appreciated that Lumen Table Lamp came with practical facts rather than vague promises. Two catalog details stood out: country of origin — Portugal; and warranty — 2 years. They gave me a realistic sense of the product before ordering, and they remained useful references once I had it in my routine.
Well described and easy to assess
For Lumen Table Lamp, the deciding factor was the clarity of the catalog description. It records product weight — 2800 g; and materials — Ceramic body, linen shade, brass fittings. That made comparison simple and set sensible expectations. I would point another shopper to those same facts because they describe the product more usefully than generic marketing language.
