French & Hamptons Style
This antique brass floor lamp base brings a genuine swing arm mechanism to the classic reading lamp, letting you angle light exactly where it’s needed beside an armchair or reading nook. Standing 153cm tall on a stepped round base, it has the solid, grounded look that suits a Hamptons or French provincial living room, study or bedroom. The aged brass finish carries a soft, worn glow rather than a bright polish, giving it the character of a piece that has been in the family for years.
- Solid brass column and stepped round base give the lamp real heft — it weighs 8kg, so it stands firm and doesn’t tip when the arm is adjusted.
- The swing arm pivots to direct light over a book, desk or armchair without moving the whole lamp.
- Fitted with a standard B22 lamp holder and rated to 40W on LED globes only, keeping running costs low while giving a warm, heritage-style glow.
- Runs on standard 240V household power with a 1.4m cord from base to switch, long enough to reach a nearby wall point without an extension lead.
- IP20 rated for dry indoor use — living rooms, studies and bedrooms rather than bathrooms or covered outdoor areas.
- Sold as a base only, so you can pair it with a shade of your choosing; we recommend the XL Drum Lamp Shade for correct proportion.
A Traditional Brass Floor Lamp Base for Hamptons and French Provincial Rooms
Stand it beside a wingback chair, a sofa end table, or a bedside reading corner where the swing arm can be angled over a book. The turned brass detailing at the arm and the ringed stepped base echo French provincial and Hamptons furniture, so it sits comfortably beside timber armchairs, upholstered sofas and heritage-style side tables. Pair it with a linen or drum shade in a neutral tone to complete the look.
