Mid Century Tension Pole Lamp with Wooden Shades
Perfect For: Accent lighting in the living room
What We Like: Original yet budget-friendly
What We Don’t Like: Shows signs of wear and rust
Not So Good For: Tall ceilings
Here’s a rare find at an affordable price! Crafted from glass, metal, and wood, this tension pole lamp presents a peculiar Danish modern style. It features three chunky light shades that hang from a matte gold canopy with decorative chains. Each bulb is protected with a chimney and gives off a warm glow thanks to the frosted base. While the bottom part of the pole is stationary, the top part is adjustable to fit 87 to 90-inch ceilings.
We recommend setting this lamp in a bright neutral room (preferably with white walls) to highlight its distinctive features. Even better, pair it with organically shaped furniture—such as a round wooden coffee table or Camaleonda-style sofa— to create a sense of balance.
