Table lamps

Table lamps are a very useful home lighting device that provide light when we work, read and have fun at home.

There are different types of table lamps that provide us with a different way of lighting the desk or table they stand on, but this does not detract from their efficiency in any circumstances.

If you are looking for table lamps, you have come to the right place: the Elmark online store.

Especially for you we have prepared a large selection of table lamps which differ in style and appearance, but they are all manufactured with quality materials to be highly reliable.

Below are details of some varieties of table lamps, their nature and basic uses, so that you can make a fully informed choice and obtain a product that will fully meet your needs.

What are table lamps?

Table lamps are small appliances designed to light a small area of one room, usually desks, tables, etc.

Table lamps are used in both the home and office and in retail premises.

One of the main differences between table lamps and other types of lamps is that table lamps are adjustable. This, among other advantages, makes them a preferable for working or reading.

Main features of table lamps

Like any lamp, the purpose of table lamps is to light a part of a room.

But in addition, they can also be chosen as an interior design feature in a room and much of their value lies in their attractive appearance.

In addition, remember that in addition to providing light in the same way as other lighting units such as wall lights, ceiling lights, chandeliers, night lights, standing lamps, etc., table lamps can illuminate particular items.

Very often they are used on desks, which usually means lighting while a person is at work. This makes the functionality of a desk lamp much more important than other lamps and it is therefore more important to choose them carefully.

Many students also use desk lamps to study, read and work on projects.

But the leisure aspects should also be borne in mind. Reading lamps are suitable for reading books and playing computer games. For the latter in particular, you should not rely only on the light of your monitor, as it causes eye strain and fatigue.

How to choose table lamps for the home

Although the appearance of table lamps plays a major part in their choice, their adaptability is much more important.

When studying or engaging in activities that require reading and work with your eyes, adjustable reading lamps are a huge advantage as light can be directed exactly where you need it.

So when choosing table lamps for your home, it is advisable to think carefully about what they will be used for most often.

If you only want table lamps to emit light, then lamps on a stand that come with a lampshade to diffuse and soften the light are a perfect option for you.

However, if you want to use them for purely practical purposes, we recommend that you focus on an adjustable model.

The right height for table lamps

There is no universal answer to this question, but we will still try to guide you.

First of all, the height of the lamp should be determined by your personal needs. Secondly, the height of the desk or table on which you will place your lamps is also significant.

Consider your own height in your decision as well, so that you do not have to have to reach out and get up every time you want to adjust your lamp or turn it on or off.

The height of a table lamp, together with the desk on which it is placed, should in most cases be at the level of a standing lamp.

The latter are usually up to 160 centimetres high.

Measure the height of your desk and match the height of the lamp you intend to buy.

Of course, the height of adjustable table lamps is variable and you can afford a lot more freedom in this respect.

Different types of table lamp

There are many different types of table lamp and they vary in size and design, depending on the use for which they are intended and the person using them.

The main types of table lamps are either adjustable or static as mentioned above.

Besides this basic distinction, there is an almost limitless variety of table lamps.

From here on, they can be distinguished by design, colour, light output, the material they are made of and in some cases the number of light bulbs.

In the Elmark Online Store you will find a wide range of table lamps and the most common types to choose from.

Table lamps - what colour to choose

As with any light source, it is also important to be careful when choosing a colour for the light.

The colour of the light is usually determined by the room where it will be used and what it will be used for.

If you only want light from your table lamp that complements the main room, we recommend softer, more subdued light. Here a lampshade will be useful.

But if you want your desk lamp to help you with working and reading, you will definitely need something with stronger and more concentrated light.
