{"title":"Round Lamps","description":"\u003cp\u003eRound lamps have a lovely way of softening a room. Curved bases and globe-like forms break up straighter furniture, add a little visual movement and make table lighting feel more sculptural without becoming fussy. A round table lamp works particularly well on bedside tables, consoles and side tables where its shape can be appreciated from several angles. For other silhouettes and materials, browse our wider \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pooky.com\/collections\/table-lamps\"\u003etable lamps\u003c\/a\u003e collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shape can be subtle or quite bold. A neat round lamp base feels calm and balanced, while a larger spherical design has more presence and can hold its own on a broad console or generous side table. Black round table lamps feel more graphic, white or cream designs are softer, and coloured or patterned bases make the curved silhouette feel even more playful. The trick is to choose a size that feels substantial enough for the furniture beneath it without crowding the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRound bases are also rather good partners for \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pooky.com\/collections\/lampshades\"\u003elampshades\u003c\/a\u003e because the curves make proportion especially noticeable. A \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pooky.com\/collections\/drum-lampshades\"\u003edrum shade\u003c\/a\u003e keeps the outline clean and balanced, while a tapered or pleated shade can add contrast and make the base feel a little more traditional. Once the lamp base is chosen, our lampshades are useful for comparing shape, scale and fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn bedrooms, a pair of round table lamps can soften the harder lines of a bed and headboard, especially when the bases sit comfortably within the width of the bedside tables. In a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pooky.com\/collections\/living-room-lights\"\u003esitting room\u003c\/a\u003e, one larger round lamp can make a console or sideboard feel more finished while adding a useful pool of ambient light. Our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pooky.com\/collections\/bedside-table-lamps\"\u003ebedside table lamps\u003c\/a\u003e are worth a look if you are choosing specifically around the bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs ever, proportion matters more than labels. Check the overall width of the base, the height once the shade is added and how much usable surface will remain around it. A round lamp should feel pleasingly solid, not as though it has rolled onto a table that is much too small for it.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/www.pooky.com\/collections\/round-lamps.oembed","provider":"Pooky Lighting","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
