Pennywell Bay Gray Lamp

To maintain the crisp look of the gray fabric shade, our care recommendations suggest regular dusting with a clean, dry microfiber cloth or a soft brush vacuum attachment. For minor spots, gently blot with a damp cloth, taking care not to soak the fabric. Regular maintenance prevents dust from becoming embedded in the weave, preserving the shade's ability to diffuse light evenly.

Stability is a key feature of this design. The combination of iron and mango wood gives the lamp a solid, low center of gravity. Unlike hollow-bodied lamps, the weight provided by these materials makes it more resistant to being accidentally tipped over by pets or in high-traffic areas of the home, such as a busy entryway or a family living room.

With a height of 26.5 inches, this lamp is ideally scaled for versatility. For a bedside table, this height typically ensures the bottom of the drum shade is at eye level while you are sitting up in bed, providing excellent task lighting for reading without causing glare. In a living room, its 19-inch width makes it a substantial statement piece that balances well with larger sofas and end tables.

The brushed gray and silver finish on the iron components provides a sophisticated, contemporary look that is also practical. This textured finish is excellent at hiding fingerprints and smudges compared to high-polish chrome. Additionally, the iron base is a resilient material choice for various climates, though we recommend a quick wipe with a dry cloth during routine cleaning to maintain its metallic luster.

This lamp features a base crafted from a blend of iron and solid mango wood. Mango wood is a sustainable hardwood highly valued in furniture making for its dense grain and natural durability. When paired with an iron frame, it creates a sturdy, weighted foundation that offers superior stability compared to lighter plastic or thin ceramic alternatives, ensuring the lamp remains secure on your surfaces.

This lamp is designed for straightforward setup and requires only partial assembly. Typically, this involves securing the shade to the socket with a finished finial or socket ring and inserting a bulb. This user-friendly design allows you to enjoy your new lighting almost immediately upon delivery.
