How to Pick the Right Gold Bedside Table Lamp
When it comes to picking the right gold bedside table lamp, it’s important to consider a few factors. First, you need to consider the space where you plan to place the lamp. You’ll need to determine whether it will be placed on a nightstand or a larger table in the bedroom, or on a side table in a reading nook or den.
Another factor is the height of the lamp. The ideal bedside lamp will be in proportion to the bed and at eye level when you’re seated. In other words, it should be 19 to 21 inches from the top of the mattress.
Alternatively, you can opt for a table lamp with a shorter height, which is ideal if you have a taller bed or sofa in the living room and would like to have your lamp on a smaller scale. Then again, if you are looking to have the light cast a different way, you can also go with a floor lamp that has a higher base than your average bedside lamp.
What’s more, many of these lamps can be purchased in pairs or sets to symmetrically surround a decorative centerpiece or serve as stylish bedside lighting. For a more striking look, we recommend you pair a gold lamp with a gold pendant light over your bedroom or dining room.
Then again, if you want to keep your bedroom looking ultra-chic, you can also choose a table lamp with a white color glass shade that casts a soft glow for a bedtime read or a dimmable metal and glass bedside table lamp that has an industrial feel.
Whichever type of bedside lamp you choose, remember to check the wattage. Most table lamps are designed to accommodate either incandescent or compact fluorescent bulbs, but some also use energy-efficient LEDs.
Lastly, be sure to check the cord length. A tangled cord can quickly make your bedroom look cluttered and untidy.
If you are concerned about the amount of light the lamp will provide, you can select a table lamp with a touch sensor that allows you to adjust both the brightness and color of the lamp’s lights. This means you can set it to the perfect amount of light for the moment and let it automatically turn off when you’re ready to sleep, without having to constantly fumble with the switch!
