Fabula Maple Table Lamp Base - Antique Brass - Base Only

Darkened Metal with Old World Warmth

This is the Maple lamp base finished in antique brass, a darkened metalwork tone that brings old world warmth to any side table, dressing table or sideboard. It shares the gentle curved profile common to the entire Maple family, so any Maple shade sold separately will sit straight onto it without fuss, letting you build a lamp that matches your own taste and room scheme.

Choosing Your Finish

Antique brass is darker and more muted than brighter brass options, with a warmth that suits more traditional or rustic room settings without feeling stuck in the past. Other finishes are available across the range, so if you prefer something more contemporary or neutral, you have options to suit different interiors.

How It Works

The base accommodates a single E27 lamp fitting (bulbs not included, 20W maximum) and includes an inline switch for straightforward control at the lamp itself. It's Class II wired, so no earth connection is needed during setup. You can use dimmable bulbs with a compatible dimmer if you want to control light levels.

Where It Works Best

This base belongs in dry indoor spaces in living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and dining rooms. It works best on wood furniture where its antique brass finish can sit alongside the natural grain, though it also works well on modern surfaces where it provides a visual bridge between contemporary and traditional elements. Not suitable for bathrooms or moisture prone areas.

Design Details

Made from iron finished to mimic aged brass, this base is deliberately understated so the shade you pair with it takes centre stage. The curved silhouette runs through the whole Maple range, creating visual consistency while allowing the metalwork finish to change the overall feel from room to room.
