A plug-in swing arm wall lamp with a bold yellow cone shade, built for reading nooks, bedside tables, and home office desks.
The Orwell takes its cues from vintage factory lighting - exposed mechanical details, a matte black steel arm, and a saturated auric yellow cone shade that adds a shot of color without shouting. Because it plugs into a standard outlet, you get wall-mounted task lighting without hiring an electrician. The swing arm extends and the head pivots, so you can aim light exactly where you need it.
Best for
- Bedrooms - mounted beside the bed as a reading light that frees up nightstand space
- Home offices and craft rooms where you need focused task light on a desk
- Rentals and apartments where hardwiring is not an option
- Living rooms and reading chairs that need a directional accent light
Not ideal for
- Open outdoor areas with direct rain - this is damp rated, not wet rated
- Walls with no outlet nearby, since the lamp is plug-in rather than hardwired
- Anyone wanting a fully hidden bulb - the cone shade leaves the bulb visible
How bright is it?
Lumen output is not specified by the manufacturer because it depends on the bulb. With one 100W max A19 bulb it delivers strong, focused task light; a 60W-equivalent LED is plenty for reading.
Light color and feel
Color temperature comes from your bulb. The yellow steel shade warms the light slightly, so 2700K-3000K bulbs give the most comfortable reading glow. Dimmable with a compatible dimmer.
Sizing and fit
Overall 10 in W x 11.5 in D x 9 in H with an 11.5 in extension and a 5.13 in round backplate. The swing arm reaches out from the wall, so leave clearance beside the bed or desk. Height adjusts from 9 in to 11.25 in.
