A floor lamp built like an oversized desk lamp
The Goliath Task Lamp takes the classic spring balanced desk lamp and scales it right up to floor lamp height. The jointed arm swings and tilts by hand, so you can aim a bright, focused pool of light exactly where you're working, reading, or relaxing.
Chrome and grey finish
This version pairs a soft grey shade and base with polished chrome joints and arms, giving it a crisp look that still feels at home in a living room. The white interior of the shade helps bounce light out in a wide, even spread.
How It Works
- Two jointed spring arms let you raise, lower, and angle the shade by hand.
- Takes 1 x E27 bulb, not included; we recommend around 6W LED (60W incandescent equivalent).
- Stands freely on a round, weighted base, no wall fixing needed.
- Reaches up to 170cm tall, with a 30cm wide base footprint.
Where It Works Best
Its height and reach make it a natural fit for a home office or study corner, angled over a desk for close task light. It also works well next to an armchair or sofa in a living room, bedroom, or hallway, wherever you want light that can be pointed rather than left to spread on its own.
Good to Know
- Class II double insulated, so no separate earth connection is needed.
- Rated IP20, suited to dry indoor rooms only.
- Covered by a 1 year warranty.
- Wipe the shade, arms, and base with a soft, dry cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners on the chrome joints.
Questions People Ask
What bulb does the Goliath Task Lamp need?
It takes a single E27 bulb, sold separately. We suggest an LED of around 6W, which is roughly equivalent to a 60W incandescent bulb.
Can I angle the shade up or down?
Yes. The two jointed arms move by hand, so you can raise, lower, and tilt the shade to point light where you need it.
How tall does it stand?
Up to 170cm at full extension, on a 30cm wide base, so it's sized as a genuine floor lamp rather than a desk lamp.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It's rated IP20, which means it's designed for dry indoor rooms such as living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices.
