COLORED TABLE LAMPS

Colored table lamps are a great way to give your space personality, interject color and help set the mood. Purchasing a table lamp also has its advantages to you as well. Not only is a table lamp portable but, it is also energy saving friendly. Most table lamps today have a 3 way switch function that will allow you to choose the light setting that is most appropriate to the time of day. Typically there are 3 settings on a 3 way switch table lamp, low, medium and high. This is a great feature to take advantage of so that you can use light output to create an ambiance in a space or use the light settings so that you may see your reading materials with comfort. Table lamps also do not require an electrician, which is more money in your pocket and allows you to spend that little extra on a style of your choice. Choosing a colored table lamp from the mixture of styles and designs is the best part of your purchasing process. Your décor wouldn’t be complete without that perfect table lamp and the convenience of a light source at your figure tips. We think colored table lamps would be a great choice for your space!

So with the lighting industry delving into translating fashion sense to lighting sense no wonder there are so many colored table lamps to choose from. And with all the competition out there we are excited to share with you a line that takes pride in design, quality, and creating colored table lamps. Robert Abbey Lighting carries the biggest selection of ceramic colored table lamps. We see their designs and products as a great addition to contemporary, luxe and transitional decor. Robert Abbey Lighting introduced this year Mary McDonald’s collection and new additions in the Jonathan Adler line as well, just to name a few of their popular designers. This is a company that has been designing and manufacturing their own product since 1946, right here in the U.S. Robert Abbey Lighting definitely keeps up with the trends and creates timeless design.

In this month’s lighting feature we were inspired by Robert Abbey’s trendy selection of colored table lamps. We wanted to help inspire your décor or help you create that perfect mood for your space with a colored table lamp. Keeping up with the trends can be quite the challenge, but with the accessibility of portables it’s easy to freshen up your space with a colored table lamp. Just recently, Pantone released their color selections for spring this year and let’s just say we loved seeing that translate into lighting design. Out of the 16 color trends that Pantone released for spring, we picked our top 8 colors and used inspirational designs from Robert Abbey Lighting in this month’s lighting feature. So have fun, be inspired and pick that perfect table lamp for your space. Just remember color is a great way to set the mood!

Tangerine Tango was Pantone's color of the year for 2012. And with the launch of Mary McDonald's collection this year was perfect timing! Her designs can be seen as contemporary lux or transitional in design and we think a piece from any of her collections will definitely be a conversational piece in your home. If you need a bold and daring colorful table lamp, try Mary's Annika Collection. We were excited to see that some of her use of color was inspired by some of Pantone’s color releases this year. And expressing that in her Annika’s Tangerine table lamp in this collection was quite exquisite. Another addition to her line was the collection, Santorini, which for us was a play on bold patterns for the contemporary arena. We associated this collection with influences of color from Pantone’s Sodalite blue tone. We were delighted to see these designs in person and let us tell you, the Mary McDonald line would be a great addition to freshen up your living space.

If you’re looking for cooler shades of color, we found colored table lamps that would be perfect for your décor. The newly release Audrey collection and Robert Abbey’s timeless design, the Triple Gourd collections is where you will find inspirational colors that are similar to Pantone’s Tradewinds and Cockatoo. The Audrey ST980 is just one of the five color options available to you in this collection. We love the idea that shades of grey don’t have to be doughty and with Audrey’s Lucite Smokey Taupe finish, it definitely has reminisces of Pantone’s Tradewinds color. In fact we think this colored table lamp would be a perfect fit for mono tone schemes. With Cockatoo being a playful and fresh color hue from Pantone, we adored Robert Abbey’s, Triple Gourd, A292X in Peacock Glazed Finish. Its Lucite base and Pearl Dupioni Fabric Shade not only make it contemporary, but allows the finish to be the center of attention.

Robert Abbey’s Double Gourd collection is definitely a design that of their own. With numerous color options, lamp shade options, base options and different sizes, you will enjoy customizing your own colored table lamp with the Double Gourd collection. We were inspired by Pantone’s Margarita and Bellflower colors because they are tones that will allow you to add pops of color comfortably in your home without committing to strong tones of the “usual” Green and Purple. Robert Abbey’s Double Gourd, A673 Apple Glazed Finish and the Double Gourd A392 Lilac Glazed Finish are the perfect balance of colors while still keeping it contemporary in form.

With the Jonathan Adler line there is nothing short of charisma and personality. The Capri Collection was the perfect inspiration to our last 2 favorite colors from Pantone’s Spring color palette. Adler’s, Capri YL732 definitely exudes Solar Power with its Yellow cased glass finish, while the Capri GY732 has the right balance of calming grey hues similar to that of Pantone’s Vintage Khaki. We think these two colored table lamps together will add a unique balance of color to many decors. So if you’re in the market to have table lamps that are saturated in color and have a clean design. Just remember, Jonathan’s colored table lamps are a happy medium between chic and sophistication fit for any home!
