Santa & Cole Americana Table Lamp

A desk-height swing-arm lamp that aims light exactly where you work or read.

We like the Americana for home offices, nightstands and hotel desks where the light needs to move between tasks. The rotating arm lets one lamp serve a laptop, a book or a quiet evening. It fits Mid-Century, Transitional and Modern Classic interiors.
