Frantz Road White Lamp

To achieve a visually balanced look, a table lamp should generally be about 1.5 times the height of the surface it sits on. Since this lamp stands 28.5 inches tall, it is perfectly scaled for side tables or end tables roughly 20 inches in height. This proportion ensures that the bottom of the 17-inch drum shade remains at eye level when you are seated, providing comfortable, glare-free illumination for reading or conversation.

While highly versatile, this lamp’s 28.5-inch height makes it a bold choice that works best on larger nightstands or when paired with more substantial headboards. The white linen shade is excellent for diffusing light into a soft, ambient glow that is conducive to relaxation. When placing it bedside, ensure the height allows the light source to be positioned so you can read comfortably without the bulb being directly in your line of sight.

Ceramic is an exceptionally resilient material for homes in coastal or humid environments because it is naturally resistant to corrosion and salt air, unlike many metallic finishes. Additionally, the substantial weight of the ceramic base provides enhanced stability, offering a sturdy, tip-resistant lighting solution for high-traffic living areas or homes with active pets.

This lamp requires partial assembly, which typically involves simple steps such as attaching the harp, securing the linen drum shade with the finial, and inserting your preferred bulb. While our full-service delivery often includes setup for larger furniture pieces, these minor finishing touches are designed to be completed quickly and easily by the homeowner without the need for specialized tools.

To maintain the integrity of the satin glaze, we recommend dusting the ceramic base regularly with a soft, dry cloth; avoid harsh chemicals that could dull the striped finish. For the hardback drum shade, our expert care advice suggests using a lint roller or a vacuum with a soft brush attachment to gently remove dust from the linen fabric. For minor spots on the shade, lightly apply mild soap and water with a clean cloth, ensuring you blot the area rather than rubbing to prevent damage to the fabric weave.

This lamp is a hallmark of coastal and transitional design. The classic "Frantz Road" aesthetic, featuring rich navy blue stripes on a white ceramic base, is inspired by nautical knitwear, making it a perfect anchor for seaside-themed rooms. However, the addition of polished nickel-plated accents and a crisp, contemporary drum shade allows it to fit seamlessly into modern or grandmillennial interiors that prioritize clean lines and traditional color palettes.
