It’s grand, it’s gorgeous, and if it’s good enough for the Venus de Milo then it’s good enough for our designer table lamps. Yes, we’re talking marble. So step this way into our hall of marble table lamps, and prepare your eyes for a feast…
You’ve made it in Hollywood and bought the mansion in Beverley Hills. So what’s the quickest way to get some imposing grandeur into your home? The answer, of course, is to fill your hallway with a row of whacking great marble columns.

But if that seems rather OTT for your humble abode, how about the next best thing… a lovely marble table lamp? It’ll have all the timeless beauty and some of the sheer weight of a column, but without the pretentiousness (or the price tag). Here are a few examples for your delectation...
The Herbert - a classical column
The Herbert is a perfect, understated bijou column for the discerning classicist (we say ‘bijou’, but at 30cm high it’s a pretty substantial table lamp). We do it in a black, which looks quite splendid with an empire shade in deep, rich ruby dupion silk…

The Samson – for something spectacular
Samson in white - Unfortunately the Samson range is no longer available, but please take a look at our extensive range of marble table lamps here
It’s a square column and six inches taller than the Herbert, so if you want something that’s really going to dominate a table – perhaps in a hallway – then the Samson is the marble table lamp for you. It also comes in black:
The Crescent – for a sculptural conversation-piece

The Crescent uses inverted crescents of black marble set in a brass base: a really classy combination of materials which together make something unusual and, we think, very smart.
The Black Monday – less is more

Minimalist, sleek, chic and achingly cool. The Black Monday proves that less can sometimes be so much more. Simple lines, an elegant brass column in an understated marble base and beautifully finished. We even made a matching floor lamp.
The Sphynx - Art Deco beauty

Finally, the Sphynx - which we think is Art Deco style at its finest. It's an inverted tapered white marble column, top and tailed with polished brass. Gorgeous.
