{"title":"Buffet Lamps","description":"\u003cp\u003eA buffet lamp is a narrow lamp that runs tall — usually twenty-seven to thirty-five inches — so it gives a console, sideboard or bar real height without eating the surface. That is the whole idea. On a dining room buffet you want light at the height of a standing guest, not a wide shade sitting in the middle of the serving dishes, and on a hall console you want something that reads vertical against the mirror above it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuy them in pairs. A single buffet lamp at one end of a sideboard almost never looks right; two flanking a mirror or a piece of art is one of the most reliable moves in decorating, and it is why these are sold as often to designers as to homeowners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe edit here runs from stone to sculpture. Eleanor is a tapered travertine column, Octavia a slim black marble stem with brass pull chains and two light levels for a dinner table. Philippa comes in gunmetal or gold with a matching metal shade, so the whole silhouette reads as one line. Charlotte is whitewashed faux bois under a woven rattan shade, Josephine a cast iron stem in antiqued gold leaf, and Arabella a natural brass column under a scalloped linen shade in cream, green or poppy. Rosalind, gold on a clear acrylic base, is the dressiest of the group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeed a lamp where there is no outlet?

Thirty-three inches of slim gunmetal column rise from a rectangular base of white and gray marble, and the shade is metal as well — a tapered drum in the same dark finish — so the piece reads as one continuous line rather than a base wearing a hat. Because that shade is opaque, the light throws up and down instead of out, which is exactly what you want flanking a mirror or bracketing a buffet, where a glowing linen shade would sit right at eye level. The ninety-eight-inch cord is unusually long and makes placement on a deep console far easier than most lamps allow.

The tapered metal shade matches, which is what keeps the silhouette clean; there is no break between base and shade, just one long vertical stroke. Opaque metal means the light goes up and down rather than sideways, so these work on a buffet or a bar where a lit linen shade would glare.

The shade flares to thirteen inches across but stands only eight tall, which is what gives the lamp its low, spreading pool of light rather than a column of it. Two brass sockets sit underneath with their own pull chains, so you can run one bulb for a dinner table and both for a working sideboard.

A slim gold column runs the full thirty-three inches, interrupted at the base by a round disc of clear acrylic that catches light and makes the lamp look as though it is floating just above the surface. The shade is the other half of the argument — a scalloped white linen taper, the kind of detail that softens all that polish and keeps the lamp from tipping into anything too glamorous. It is a good choice where you want a buffet lamp to be noticed: a powder room console, a bar, the far end of an entry table. The clear base also means it visually disappears on a crowded sideboard, which is more useful than it sounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShade:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8” x 12” x 11”H, scalloped round taper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverall height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 33”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kevin Francis Design","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41643217813562,"sku":"ROS-L4683T","price":234.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0074\/5390\/0858\/files\/Rosalind_Buffet_Lamp_8d657cce-cd0d-451f-a938-eed0e18e6954.jpg?v=1789064639"},{"product_id":"eleanor-travertine-buffet-lamp","title":"35” Eleanor Travertine Column Buffet Lamp","description":"\u003cp\u003eEleanor is a single tapered column of travertine, thirty-five inches of it, set on a small rectangular foot of the same stone.

The oatmeal linen shade is lined, so the light comes through warm rather than white, and the wide taper suits the height without crowding it.

Charlotte stands thirty inches, slim enough to slip between a stack of books and a mirror, and the rattan shade is the part that makes it: open weave over a whitewashed trunk, warm light through a woven pattern. There is a dimmer built into the socket, which on a buffet lamp matters more than it does anywhere else, since these usually end up in dining rooms where you want the light down.
