Close your eyes and try to picture a table lamp. Odds are you probably thought of a typical cloth shaded one with its shade being wider at the base than at its top. Honestly, we don’t blame you because the sort of table lamp that you just envisioned are some of the most common sorts of table lamps out there.
They’re a safe bet and work well with any design. However, we aren’t looking to blend in. We’re trying to look for the best table lamps we can find in Singapore and what better way than to stand out.
There’s nothing wrong with having ivory or white shade, they’re usually considered as letting through the most light. However, when placing a table lamp for guests to see, you want a completely different feel. For example; if you place a table lamp in the dining room, it acts as accent lighting. If you place one on the vanity, you want it to act as task lighting.
With non-conventional shades, you play around with the color, design, and overall shape of the shade. There are several sorts to choose from. You could go with drum shades, linear shades, and so forth. Similarly, you could have patterns and designs that are shorter than the rest of the shade.
The lampshade is the focal element of the lamp itself. Illumination is an obvious feature, but the type of light it illuminates is inherently related to the sort of lampshade there is. Plus, to wow your guests you would have to consider decorative elements as well.
A common mistake homeowners often make while selecting lampshades is buying one that’s of wrong proportions.
Rule of Thumb: the diameter of your lampshade has to be about 2 inches less than the base length of your lamp.
There’s also the option of ditching a cloth shade altogether for a metal shade. Metals are crown jewels when it comes to decorating a room. They look chic and classy. However, mixing too many metals is a strong pass.
Here’s what works – chrome and nickel, nickel and bronze, silver and gold, and anything with copper. Just make sure you do not end up mixing too many different metals in the same room.

Accent lights are considered adjuncts to central lighting elements such as chandeliers or pendants. This doesn’t always have to be the case, and doesn’t have to be when you buy table lamps. They create a soft and diffused glow that sets the tone for a cozier atmosphere. As such, some of the best table lamps to impress can be other than ambient, but to provide diffused lighting through smart use of frosted glass lamp shades.
It’s important to consider the sort of tone you wish to achieve when you have guests over – Is it a cocktail party? A graduation dinner? Whatever the case may be, you want everyone to feel at home and relaxed. Diffused lights do just that.
You can place table lamps with diffused lights at the edges of the room for a cozy light effect all over. They distract the eyes from wandering about and protect them from glare.
