1. Himalayan Salt lamp
It’s just as the same says, it’s gotten from salt mined from the Himalayan Mountains in Pakistan.
Salt lamps are supposed to give a warm reddish color with a tint of orange or pink. This choice of color makes this type of light more appealing to corners like bookshelves or side tables.
They are also believed to have various health benefits as well. Salt lamp lights purify the air of toxins and help to elevate mood because of the warmth they provide.
Himalayan salt lamps are made from pure salt, making it a sleep enhancer.
Though this kind of lamp is breakable, it’s proven to have good spiritual and health benefits while being a good choice for decoration in homes.
Though salt lamps are easy-care lamps, it’s important to place them in dry areas to prevent excess moisture from getting in.
Placements of salt lamps are crucial if the goal is to elevate the warmth and feel of the room.
Since it’s a decoration lamp, it’s better put in areas that need attention, like a bookshelf or award-centric shelf, floating shelves, bedside tables or even at the center of the room.
All in one, Himalayan salt lamps adds to the overall aesthetics of the whole room it’s been placed in, not only adding warmth but creating a cozy atmosphere.
2. Globe Table Lamp
Ever wondered why globe lamps are so popular?
Maybe not.
Well, it kinda looks like the sun. It’s also called a sunlight lamp, moon lamp, orb lamp, or a LED ball light. It’s a beautiful lamp to consider if you’re thinking of expanding your lamp collection.
It’s round and comes in a wide variety of sizes, so you can get them small or big.
Also, globe lamps are known for changing light shades, I like this bit because it allows you to change the color depending on your mood or the time of the day.
It can be used both indoors and outdoors. For indoors, it’s placed on bedside tables as a night light, or in dim corners that need some type of lighting.
It’s used as a garden lamp or pool side lamp when placed outdoors.
The warm color choice is the best if you’re looking to create that cozy warm aesthetic in your living space.
3. Ansel Glass Table Lamp
This is a kind of mushroom lamp light with a bulb-like base and sharp cylindrical top.
Ansel table lamps rank high on my lamp collection. And there are 2 reasons why:
- They look vintage
- They give the softest glow to the area
Yeah. Also, they are inspired by Italian Murano glass and come in a variety of colors and designs like iridescent, confetti, swirl, pearl, and even tortoise shell.
Of course, it’s a bit pricey and gets sold out quickly but I see it as a long-term investment.
Just like the salt lamp, it’s low maintenance and doesn’t require excessive cleaning. A clean wipe will do.
It’s perfect for centering attention and highlighting the beauty of the living area.
Ansel table lamps may be small but they do look good.
4. Orange Nesso Lamp
The one and only Nesso lamp is a kind of mushroom lamp with a wide top and a slim base.
Orange Nesso lamps give a retro type of vibe, so if that’s your style, it’ll be perfect for you.
The lamp gives a charming strong orange glow to the area, it lights up the base and wall of the area where it was placed because of its wide top, it reaches far enough but not too far.
This creates a charming yet mystic glow in the room.
It is made of sturdy quality materials, which makes it easier to handle and move around if you get tired of the placement.
Nesso lamps come in different colors but for some reason, the orange does the job for me. The orange creates that warm effect and lights the place up.
5. Corner Floor Lamp
There are several places you can place this lamp because of its long and slender nature, but the corner of a room takes the win.
I mean, it’s called a corner lamp for a reason.
This light is perfect for neutral and minimalist living rooms. A minimalist room can look a bit dry, but this light can heighten the sense of warmth and add that comfort feeling to it.
The slender figure of this lamp adds a modern touch to the room as well.
it’s made of metal so it’s easy to move around. This lamp comes with lots of pros like having a remote which allows for light adjustments depending on your mood.
While being perfect for most types of minimalist spaces, living rooms and offices rank high in my top favorite places to place the lamp.
Its job is to illuminate the corner of the room, shifting diversion from the wide view of the room to the corners which can initially feel empty and far-fetched.
6. Sunset Lamp
There’s one word I can use to describe the feeling of the light this lamp gives.
Nostalgic.
It’s not the typical type of lamp light. Its sole purpose is to illuminate a backdrop like art on a wall or medals on a wall. Just something on a wall.
it emits red, orange, and yellow, designed to mimic the colors and ambiance of a sunset.
it gives a warm feel when used during gloomy days or evenings while reading a book or playing a game of cards.
This lamp light is simply relaxing.
7. 90s Astro Lava Lamp
I love the look of this lamp and the vibe the emulates. Psychedelic!
I think everyone should have a Lava lamp at home, it’s like having pots and pans in the kitchen. It’s a popular lamp.
It consists of a transparent glass container filled with a colored, oily liquid and a waxy substance that floats within it.
When the lamp is heated, the wax rises and falls in mesmerizing, lava-like patterns, creating a soothing and psychedelic effect.
Sadly it’s purely decorative. I cannot assure you of its longevity as I hear it lasts for only a couple of weeks.
It comes in many sizes with many designs and colors so you can pick one that matches your vibe, or room style.
Apparently, you can make lava lamps at the comfort of yourself, there are plenty of DIY videos on how to make one.
To save money, you can make it yourself and see if you like the light before making any purchases.
8. Phoenix Floor Lamp
Thie phoenix floor lamp is such an underrated lamp. You don’t see it a lot for the quality, probably because of the cost.
However, it’s perfect for outdoorsy people who love sunsets, and beaches.
It takes your apartment to another level by producing an amazing sunset effect with an array of colors that look somewhat like artwork.
That’s to tell you how much work was put in to make this lamp.
It has an aluminum finish making it sturdy and nice.
Since I’m a fan of the sunset, I love lamps that can emit that vibrant and calming glow.
9. Hurricane Oil Lamp
This is a glass shield and metal lantern that comes in different designs. It’s strictly an antique piece that takes you back to the olden days.
A hurricane lamp is a special lamp designed to work in high winds because it has a tall glass chimney that protects the flame from being blown out. It was invented in 1780 by Francois-Pierre Aime Argand, the son of a Swiss watchmaker.
It used to be used with candles as the light source but electricity is being used as of today.
I prefer vintage designs like the ones seen in thrift stores. They’re a bit rare and can be a tough find, but it’s worth it.
Mixing old antique pieces with contemporary pieces can transform your home into something out of a book.
The hurricane oil lamp does that job, of course, along with other rare vintage finds.
10. Baba Burnt Table Lamp
This looks like a typical bedside lamp, only that it’s prettier.
It’s produced in different colors but the one that really stuck out to me was the burnt amber color.
The design is modern and would fit perfectly in a Japandi style home.
Baba lamp lights also come in different sizes, so you have an option of choosing one that has the potential of looking the best in your space.
Because of the color, it tends to go well with any color of wood used for furniture.
it’s fancy too. Who doesn’t want fancy right? Home decor just went to another level with this lamp. I simply love it.
