A 20-inch table lamp with a concealed nightlight, finished in espresso and brushed nickel with a white linen shade, perfect for living rooms and bedrooms.
The Zen Table Lamp by Nova California blends mid-century modern design with practical versatility. Its dark brown wood base and brushed nickel accents create a striking contrast, while the white linen shade diffuses light softly. A unique 4-way rotary switch controls both the main light and a hidden nightlight, offering ambient or task lighting at the touch of a button. Designed by Michael Song in 2002, this lamp is handcrafted in Venice Beach, California from sustainable materials.
Best for
- Living rooms as a reading or accent lamp on an end table or console
- Bedrooms on a nightstand, providing both task light and a soft nightlight for late-night navigation
- Home offices where adjustable lighting from a desk lamp is needed
- Entryways or hallways on a small table for a warm welcome
- Spaces that benefit from a dimmable nightlight feature for ambiance or safety
Not ideal for
- Large rooms needing primary overhead lighting – this is an accent lamp
- Bathrooms or outdoor areas – not rated for damp locations
- Those seeking a uniform, mass-produced look – each wood piece has natural grain variations
