A Knurled Silver Base With Industrial Character
The Searchlight Latimer table lamp base brings a subtle industrial edge to a side table or console, with a knurled texture and a cool silver tone that catches the light. It's sold as the base only, so you can pair it with a shade of your choosing and build a table lamp that suits your room exactly.
Materials and Finish
Made from mild steel, the base has a knurled silver and grey finish with a tactile, ridged texture that adds character to a simple silhouette.
How It Works
It takes a single E27 bulb (not supplied) and is switched via a clear inline cable switch, so it's a straightforward plug in lamp base with no dimming function. It's a Class II, double insulated fixture, so no earth connection is needed, just plug it in once your shade is fitted.
Where It Works Best
With its neutral silver tone, this table lamp base suits living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms and hallways alike, wherever you want a characterful base with the freedom to choose your own shade.
