Lantern Table Lamps

Echoing the voluptuous contours and textural consistency of Japanese rice paper lanterns, the Foscarini Rituals 2 Table Lamp gracefully replicates those time-tested artisanal qualities using hand-blown glass. The striated ridges are achieved through a special grinding process, while a subsequent acid bath immersion results in the plush plaster-like aesthetic. The considered approach creates a celestial chiaroscuro effect, resulting in warm, soft illumination.

The Cesta Table Lamp, a 1964 Miguel Mila design for Santa & Cole, finds its roots in the ancient traditions of a magic lantern. With its careful modulation of light and shadow, this Cherry-wood structure with the White-opal Crystal ball, would feel at home in the Japanese palaces of the Edo period.

Named after the Spanish word for “basket,” the Santa & Cole Cestita Table Lamp is the younger sibling in the Cesta family of portable lanterns. A cherry wood frame cradles a plump white glass shade, evenly diffusing warm light around the fixture, including direct up light through the opening at the top. The adjustable handle makes moving Cestita easy; place this small lantern on table tops to soften the mood and create a warm and cozy environment.

The Eglo Rivato Table Lamp is a minimal piece featuring a glass cylinder accented with metallic details. Simple and understated, the illumination is dispersed throughout the space from all sides of the fixture, portraying a modern lantern. The shiny grass-like pattern on the glass provides a dose of contrast as well as a slight nature-inspired trait to this minimal piece.

The Santa & Cole Asa Table Lamp is Miguel Mila’s version of a portable lantern, featuring a white methacrylate shade and metal structure originally designed in 1961. The white finish was added later (the black was the original), giving the fixture a more uniform look in addition to the classic black and white option. A metal “button” matches the metal structure, which is actually a pulling device that turns the light on or off.

Hang it from the lamp's base, or carry it around the yard like a modern lantern. The Carpyen Sasha Outdoor Floor Lamp is whatever you need it to be, its shade featuring a handy transparent silicone strap that allows the fixture to be utilized with the base as a standing floor lamp, hung on a tree limb, or carried by its handle to the desired location.

The Robert Abbey Claridge Lantern Table Lamp designed by Jonathan Adler creates engaging illumination in a design that expertly balances large over small for delightful contrast. The Claridge Lantern Table Lamp features silk dupioni shade, Lead crystal body and Polished Nickel finish.

The Nelson™ Bubble Lamps® by Herman Miller® are considered icons of mid-century modern design since their introduction in 1952, featuring the famed spray-coated plastic material that hugs a steel wire frame. The Nelson Lantern Tripod Table Lamp is a white cylindrical shade with a Brushed Nickel tripod base, and is a beautiful object when the fixture is lit or unlit. The Bubble Lamps are so emblematic of mid-century modern design that they reside in the permanent collection of the MoMA in New York.

Epitomizing modern lighting, the Koncept Mr. GO! Portable Table Lamp is a sleek portable option that functions just as well on the go as it does on a cozy night stand. The ultra minimalist silhouette features a curved light panel and arched housing that give the piece a natural handle. Simply attach the faux-leather strap to hang the lantern from a tree or porch for convenient outdoor lighting anywhere (just remember to bring back inside when the outdoor activities are done). A standard USB port charges the built-in battery as well as functions as a mobile charging device for your phone.

The Lampion Bluetooth Indoor/Outdoor LED Table Lamp by Smart & Green is a contemporary twist on Chinese paper lanterns. The lamp allows for ambient and customizable lighting on all sides with Bluetooth technology that can be controlled by your smartphone or tablet. Portable and rechargeable.

A tranquil light fills the Foscarini Rituals XL Table Lamp, enhancing the mood of the space it touches once illuminated. A large orb created by a highly technical process, the traditional Venetian blown glass has a profile similar to Japanese rice paper lanterns. A mold with concentric rings imprints texture on the glass, then immersing the glass in acid gives the chalky finish. The cocoon shade manages to be substantial yet delicate in the soft light it produces.

Although it has the look of a traditional lantern, the NH1217 Table Lamp by Artemide has an updated modern flair and an extensive versatility for lighting needs. Created by Lydon Neri and Rossana Hu, the lamp’s Brass handle allows for the hand-blown Glass sphere to sit up on a table or be hung from the wall or ceiling. An easily accessible switch on the cord controls the LED light source, creating the perfect ambiance for indoor settings.

The Contardi Lighting Muse Lantern Floor Lamp inspires warmth and comfort. The three-dimensional hexagon is dissected by the metal frame, refracting incandescent light around the fixture like a prism, multiplying the amount of light through the amber acrylic glass. Made portable with a silk braided handle in dark honey, the functionality and soft light contributes an appealing accent for interior spaces.

The Lantern LED Lamp by Kartell illuminates any setting with its contemporary take on a classic design. Offered in five vibrant colors and made of mass-dyed and metallic transparent PMMA, the Lantern LED Lamp also features a battery charger. The Lantern LED Lamp will accent any modern space.

The Tolomeo Outdoor Lantern Floor Lamp by Artemide blends classic design with modern functionality, featuring a tripled-jointed Aluminum body topped with a traditional lantern-shaped fixture (including a two-layered plastic diffuser). The adjustability of the body allows you to position the soft LED lighting where you need it most, creating the perfect environment for your outdoor setting.

Designed in 1955 by Ilmari Tapiovaara, the Santa & Cole Maija LED Floor Lamp reinvents the original lamp with a new matte white finish and an innovative LED light source. Stacked layers of metal create a screen of filtered light, directing the light outward while eliminating any glare in the profile. The end result resembles an accordion lantern, helping to create a soft source of comforting light.

Highly sculptural and tall in stature, the In-Es Art Design Tank 2 Floor Lamp is a different take on a floor lantern. Made from a special blend of resin and fiberglass called Nebulite®, the scattered and fibrous texture has an almost papier-mache quality that creates veins of light and shadow once lit. The shape comes to a point at the top, reducing the amount of light that shines through, shining the brightest at the base of the fixture.

The Carpyen Sasha Plus Outdoor Floor Lamp brings the familiarity of pleated fabrics and broad illumination to exterior settings, featuring a tall, portable drum shade with a versatile plug-in installation. The internal light source is fully enclosed with a polyethylene diffuser while the exterior shade is composed of a micro-perforated lace to help protect the fixture from the elements. Supplied with almost 30 feet of cord, the Sasha Plus is also outfitted with a convenient handle at the top, placing the large lantern in outdoor dining or lounging areas without requiring close proximity to a power source.

Inspired by fishing boat lanterns, the Santorini Outdoor Floor Lamp is a dynamic beacon of light with customizable shades and a portable grey metal floor base. After hanging the Santorini pendant from the horizontal arm, the lengthy cord can then be wrapped around the structure and plugged in, easily moving the fixture around exterior environments. Two shades (one small and one large in the same color) are included with the pendant, and can be configured to change the look and distribution of light; you can decide the number of shades, direction and arrangement on the cylindrical white diffuser part of the glass.
