Santa & Cole Cesta Table Lamp
Santa & Cole Cesta Table Lamp
Couldn't load pickup availability
A warm, glare-free ambient lamp whose wood frame softens any room it is placed in.
In our projects the Cesta is the lamp that makes a room feel lived in. Its opal glass spreads light all around, so a single unit can carry the mood of a reading corner or a bedroom in the evening. The cherry frame brings warmth to Scandinavian, Mid-Century, Mediterranean and Transitional interiors. It works just as well on consoles and nightstands in boutique hotels.

Planning notes
It stands 57 cm (22.4 in) tall and about 33 cm (12.9 in) wide, so allow a table at least that wide. Use an 11 W dimmable E26 LED, up to 130 mm (5.1 in) tall; maximum 75 W. Keep it out of direct afternoon sun if you want the cherry to age evenly.
