Arc Small Table Lamp - Chrome

Description

Description
The Arc is a 235mm diameter table lamp from Ideal Lux built on a polished chrome trumpet-form base with a tapered semi-transparent PVC shade in matching chrome finish. A single E27 bulb inside the shade (sold separately) casts light through the translucent PVC, diffusing it across the shade surface while the polished chrome base reflects ambient light back into the room.

Designed for bedside tables, desks, console tables and smaller side surfaces where a compact footprint matters, the Arc works as task lighting when paired with a directional LED bulb or as ambient accent lighting with a standard warm-white bulb. The 235mm shade diameter and trumpet base occupy roughly 240mm of table surface, making the lamp practical for narrow bedside tables and workspace corners where larger lamps would overhang.

The polished chrome finish on the metal base maintains a high-gloss reflective surface that pairs with contemporary, industrial and mid-century modern interiors. The semi-transparent PVC shade softens the bulb glare without blocking light output entirely, so the fitting delivers functional illumination rather than purely decorative presence. The lamp carries an IP20 rating for dry indoor use and ships with a 5-year warranty from Ideal Lux.

Frequently Asked
What bulb does the Arc take?

The lamp takes a single E27 (Edison screw) bulb, sold separately. Most users pair this with a 6-10W LED bulb in warm white (2700K-3000K) for bedside or desk use, though the fitting accepts any E27 bulb type up to the maximum wattage specified by Ideal Lux.

Is the Arc dimmable?

No. The lamp itself is not dimmable. To achieve dimming, you would need to use a dimmable E27 LED bulb paired with a compatible plug-in dimmer or lamp dimmer switch, but this setup is not officially supported by Ideal Lux and may void the warranty.

What is the shade made from?

The shade is semi-transparent PVC with a chrome finish. The PVC diffuses light across the shade surface while remaining translucent enough to allow the bulb shape to be faintly visible when lit. The material is lightweight and less fragile than glass.

Can the Arc be used in a bathroom?

No. The IP20 rating means the lamp is designed for dry indoor spaces only and carries no protection against moisture or water ingress. Use it in bedrooms, living rooms, studies and hallways, but not in bathrooms or outdoor covered areas.
