Modern Chain Link Table Lamp | Rechargeable Touch LED Light In A Matte Black Lacquer Finish

An interlocking chain is an unusual thing to build a lamp around, and it works because the gaps are part of the object. The eye reads through the links rather than at a solid column, so a forty one centimetre lamp takes up far less visual space on a desk than its height suggests, while still being the thing you notice on the surface. That is a rare combination in a lamp with any real height to it.

Matte black lacquer keeps it graphic rather than industrial. A polished chain would throw highlights everywhere and read as hardware, whereas a matte finish holds the shape as a single dark silhouette against a wall. The light itself is a soft downlight, so it puts a pool on the surface rather than glare into the room.

Buy it now if a desk or a bedside needs an object as much as a light. Touch control dims it without a switch on a cable, and a two thousand milliamp hour lithium battery charges over USB Type C, so it runs cordless. Charge it fully before first use, keep it dry, and never leave it charging unattended on a bed or any soft furnishing.
