Anchor Lane White Table Lamps, Set of 2

These lamps feature integrated USB ports built directly into the base for modern convenience. Because these are "plug-in" lamps, they provide a consistent power source to charge smartphones, tablets, or e-readers without the need for extra wall adapters. This feature is particularly useful for reducing cord clutter on nightstands or in home offices where outlet access may be limited.

While not strictly required, using a matching set is a classic design principle that establishes symmetry and visual balance in a space. In a bedroom, placing one on each nightstand creates a polished, cohesive look. In a living room, using a pair on either side of a sofa or on a long console table provides even, layered lighting that makes the room feel more inviting and intentional.

Yes. The "Coastal" and "Cottage" design of these lamps, featuring a distressed white finish, is specifically curated for relaxed, airy environments. Unlike polished metal finishes that may show pitting or corrosion in high-humidity or salt-air environments, a distressed painted finish is naturally more forgiving and maintains its aesthetic character over time, making it an excellent choice for coastal retreats or sunrooms.

To preserve the crisp look of the white fabric, our care guidelines recommend regular dusting with a clean, soft cloth or a vacuum with a soft brush attachment. For minor spots, you may lightly apply mild soap and water with a soft sponge, being careful not to oversaturate the material. Avoid harsh chemicals, as they can weaken the fabric fibers or cause yellowing over time.

For most nightstands and side tables, a lamp between 24 and 30 inches tall is ideal. At 30 inches in height, this lamp ensures that the light source and the bottom of the shade sit near eye level while you are seated or reclining. This "rule of thumb" placement provides optimal illumination for tasks like reading while preventing the direct glare from the bulb.

Safety in a busy household often comes down to the base design. These lamps utilize a sturdy pedestal base, which provides a lower center of gravity and a wider footprint than slim, spindly designs. This construction makes the lamps less prone to tipping if accidentally bumped. For added safety, ensure that the cord is tucked behind furniture to prevent it from becoming a tripping hazard or being pulled by pets.
