Desk Lamp | ARBY

The Arby desk lamp by Sollux Lighting is a cut steel plate standing on its base, from which an exposed bulb hangs by its cable. It measures 15 cm long, 15 cm wide and 31 cm high, takes an E27 bulb and comes in white or black.

A designer desk lamp where the cable becomes decor

Arby does not look like a classic lamp. The top of the plate is cut with slots, where the cable slips through. On this designer desk lamp, the path of the cable is part of the design. It stays clearly visible, like a line drawn on the metal.

The lamp holder then hangs in front of the sheet, like a workshop work light. The base provides a stable footing. At 15 cm per side, it leaves room for the keyboard, even on a small tray.

Its look suits modern, minimalist or industrial-style interiors. Switched off, it keeps the look of a small workshop object. It draws the eye on a piece of furniture without cluttering it.

White or black industrial lamp: which finish to choose?

Arby is made of steel, in 2 finishes. In white, it takes on the air of a scale model, light and bright. On a dark worktop, this version provides a sharp contrast.

In black, this industrial lamp asserts a more workshop character. It stands out against a light wall or a graphic wallpaper. On light wood furniture, it draws a crisp line.

The 2 finishes share the same shape and the same size. Choose it according to the color of the furniture and the wall. Then repeat the shade on a frame or a shelf, for a coherent whole.

An exposed bulb to choose with care

On this exposed bulb lamp, the bulb counts as much as the plate. When lit, it illuminates the sheet placed behind it. The metal then forms a glowing backdrop.

An elongated, amber LED filament bulb underlines the retro spirit of the work light. An opal globe gives a softer light, suited to reading. For working, a neutral white lights documents better.

Keep a bulb proportionate to the plate. A model that is too big would unbalance the silhouette. A frosted bulb limits glare, because the source remains visible.

Where to place this lamp: office, bedside or living room?

On a desk, next to a screen, it provides a warm supplementary light. In a bedroom, this bedside lamp makes a change from models with shades. In a teenager's bedroom, its urban look is appealing.

In a living room, this lamp sits on a shelf or a sideboard, among books and plants. In a hallway, on a console, it offers a welcoming glow. In a dining room, it adds a point of light on a piece of furniture. Set it on a flat, stable surface, away from the edge.

Arby takes 1 LED E27 bulb of 15 W maximum, not included. The light fixture is rated IP20, so it is reserved for dry rooms. For maintenance, unplug the lamp, then wipe the plate and the base with a soft cloth.
