A 1-light swing arm lamp from the Ballston Urban collection, finished in matte black with a matching metal dome shade, ideal for bedside reading or accent lighting in living rooms.
The Ballston Urban collection by Innovations Lighting combines sleek contemporary design with heavy cast components for a sturdy, modern look. This adjustable swing arm lamp features a steel and cast brass construction, a dome-shaped metal shade, and a versatile style that suits traditional, industrial, and restoration-vintage interiors. The 12-inch extension allows flexible positioning, making it a practical choice for task lighting. Customize the look by swapping the shade with any glass or metal shade from the Franklin collection.
Best for
- Bedrooms, mounted as a reading light beside the bed, with the swing arm adjustable to direct light onto a book or phone
- Living rooms or home offices, positioned over a chair or desk for focused task lighting
- Damp-rated locations such as covered patios or bathrooms (not in direct water spray)
- Spaces with a contemporary or industrial decor theme, with the option to change shades for a custom look
Not ideal for
- Large rooms requiring broad ambient light — this is a focused task/accent light
- Ceilings under 8 ft if you need the arm fully extended upward
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. This lamp accepts one medium-base (E26) bulb up to 60W equivalent (not included). For reference, a 60W incandescent bulb produces about 800 lumens, similar to a standard room light. A vintage ST64 bulb is recommended for aesthetic consistency.
Light color and feel
Color temperature is determined by your bulb choice. For a warm, inviting glow, choose a 2700K-3000K LED bulb. The metal shade directs light downward and outward, creating a cozy, focused beam.
Sizing and fit
The lamp extends 12 inches from the wall, with a 10-inch wide shade and an overall height of 11 inches. The backplate measures 4.5 inches wide by 7.88 inches tall. It fits well on standard walls and can be positioned over a nightstand or desk.
