Find the floor lamp that provides just the right lighting for your home or office. This diverse selection includes artistic designs to brighten decors and functional styles that provide bright, clear lighting. Choose from a range of standing heights and lighting types to illuminate the whole room or cast a focused glow over a table.
Lighting Types
This selection of standing lamps includes models with upward-facing shades, downward-facing shades and adjustable shades, so you can select a floor lamp for general lighting or for focused illumination next to a sofa or chair. Arch floor lamps feature a soft, swooping design that ensures objects directly below are properly lit, while tree floor lamps feature multiple light sockets that can each be positioned separately for lighting up various areas. Floor lamps with reading lights feature a central light source in addition to a smaller light source that can be pointed right on your book or magazine for dual-purpose lighting.
Brightness
Consider the maximum wattage of light bulbs that a lamp accommodates before buying. A high-wattage bulb provides the bright lighting you need for tasks such as reading and writing, but not all lamps can use them. Low-wattage bulbs are better for ambient lighting, such as near seating areas and side tables. Three-way bulb options are perfect for adjusting the light output for various situations.
On/Off Options
Pull chains enable you to turn on a lamp with one quick motion and are often incorporated in vintage and antique styles to stay true to the period. Knobs and switches offer a streamlined look while performing the same function. Some models have switches located on the cord or base, giving you choices for access.
Integrated Storage
Some floor lamps come with built-in storage to provide space for memorabilia and trinkets. You can find designs with built-in shelving or tables, where you can set down a glass or display a photograph. These integrated designs maximize functionality and save space, making them a smart choice in small areas.
