Jay Table Lamp - Granite

Scale the lamp to the surface: the shade should be roughly one‑third the lamp’s total height and not exceed the table’s width. Balance height with nearby furniture.

Drum shades diffuse evenly; empire shades direct light downward for reading. Linen and parchment soften glare; glass adds sparkle but shows bulbs.

Aim for 450–800 lumens for ambience and 800–1500 lumens for reading. Layer with floor and wall lights for flexibility.

2700–3000K is cozy and residential. Choose CRI 90+ for accurate color on art and textiles.

Yes—many include 3‑way or rotary dimmers; smart plugs add scenes and schedules. Verify dimmer compatibility with LED bulbs.

LED A19, ST19, or small globes (G16.5/G25) are common. Pick enclosed‑rated bulbs for tight shades and keep wattage within fixture limits.

Seat‑side lamps typically 24–30 inches tall; bedside lamps place the shade’s bottom near eye level when seated or reclining.

Use cord clips, grommets, or tables with built‑in USB/AC. Route to GFCI outlets where required and avoid running cords under rugs.

Metal and glass wipe clean easily; fabric shades can be vacuumed or lint‑rolled. Choose stable bases to prevent tipping.

Check sockets and switches yearly, tighten finials, and dust shades. Replace cracked harps or discolored liners.
