Zelar Shade Blue Lamp

Hardback lampshades are constructed with a firm plastic lining that ensures the shade maintains its perfect round shape over time and prevents light from "leaking" through the sides of the fabric. When paired with a natural linen exterior, this design offers superior light diffusion, creating a soft, warm glow that is ideal for creating a cozy atmosphere while effectively reducing eye strain during tasks like reading.

For most side tables and nightstands, table lamps ranging from 24 to 30 inches in height are considered ideal. At 27 inches tall, this lamp sits perfectly within that standard range, ensuring the light source remains at a comfortable eye level while you are seated or lying down. Following the professional designer "rule of thumb," you should aim for a lamp that is approximately 1.5 times the height of the table it rests on to maintain visual proportion and prevent glare.

Ceramic is a dense, high-quality material valued for its substantial weight and durability. This specific lamp features a wide, 15-inch dome-shaped base, which creates a low center of gravity. This weighted construction makes it significantly more stable and less prone to accidental tipping than slimmer or lighter spindle designs, which is a critical safety consideration for households with active children or pets.

Based on our expertise with furniture textiles, we recommend regular dusting with a soft microfiber cloth or a dedicated upholstery brush to prevent dust from settling into the fibers. For more thorough maintenance, a lint roller is highly effective for removing debris from the fine weave of a white linen shade without damaging the hardback structure. Our care guides suggest avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, which can discolor the natural linen over time.

This lamp requires partial assembly, which typically involves securing the harp and shade to the ceramic base and installing a compatible light bulb. This minor assembly ensures that the delicate ceramic body and the round linen shade are fully protected during the shipping and delivery process, arriving at your home in pristine condition.

This lamp is designed to anchor coastal and contemporary aesthetics by pairing a deep navy blue ceramic finish with crisp brushed nickel accents. The classic navy and white palette evokes a refined maritime feel, while the smooth dome shape and round hardback shade provide the clean, geometric lines characteristic of contemporary design. It serves as an excellent focal point for coastal hideaways or modern urban living spaces.
