Cumberland Brass Floor Lamp

Yes, the 68-inch height makes this lamp a versatile choice for most standard living spaces. For the best visual balance, it is ideal for placement next to a sofa or armchair. While task lamps are often shorter to focus light downward, this taller model excels as a corner piece that provides broad, atmospheric light. Its 17-inch width and depth ensure it has a presence without overwhelming your floor plan.

This lamp is constructed with a tapered metal base designed for a low center of gravity. While its 68-inch height gives it a tall, sophisticated profile, the sturdy metal base provides a reliable foundation. For added safety in homes with active pets or children, we suggest placing the lamp on a flat, level surface and potentially in a corner or behind a side chair to minimize the risk of accidental tipping.

This item requires customer assembly, which generally involves connecting the metal base components and securing the drum shade. Ensuring all segments are tightly fastened is key to maintaining the lamp's structural integrity and straight, tapered silhouette. Following the included assembly instructions will ensure the crystal details and brass finish are handled properly during setup to prevent smudging or scratches.

To maintain the "simple elegance" of the plated brushed brass metal base, we recommend using only a soft, dry cloth for regular dusting. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can strip or tarnish the plated finish. For the off-white linen shade, a lint roller or a vacuum with a soft upholstery attachment is the most effective way to remove dust without damaging the fabric weave.

This lamp is designed primarily for ambient and accent lighting. The round hardback drum shade is crafted from off-white linen, which beautifully diffuses light to create a warm, inviting glow throughout the room. At 68 inches tall, it provides an elevated light source that helps soften shadows in large living areas or bedrooms, making it more effective for general room ambiance than a smaller table lamp.

This lamp is an excellent solution for urban apartments or rooms lacking built-in overhead lighting. Because it stands nearly six feet tall and features a translucent linen shade, it is capable of throwing light higher and wider than standard lamps. This allows it to serve as a primary ambient light source, effectively brightening a dark room with a soft, even distribution of light that bounces off the ceiling and walls.
