Tall Buffet Lamps
Buffets are typically at hip height, so buffet lamps usually aren't very tall. But if you prefer a buffet lamp that's quite a bit taller than the normal options, we have a collection of tall buffet lamps just for you. They're sturdy with attractive shades, can handle any bulb, and we have plenty of them to choose from in this collection. Take a look and see if we have a tall buffet lamp for you.

A buffet table can make a gorgeous addition to your front hallway or dining room, creating a talking point for the home. How you set your buffet table sets the tone for the space.
The table itself is typically a work of art with ornate detailing, a unique splash of color, or a rustic wood that makes it a feature of the room. When setting the top of the table, consider adding tall buffet lamps on either side to frame the set up symmetrically.
Centering a mirror or painting between the lamps on the wall above the buffet table elevates the space and draws the eye up, making the room seem larger. Create a unique centerpiece between the buffet lamps with a selection of shorter decorative pieces, such as candles, potted plants, and photographs, so the lamps balance it on either side.
If you have your buffet table in the entryway, you can incorporate stylish organization with decorative trays, ceramic bowls, or glass boxes to hold small essentials like keys, phones, and wallets.
Whether to place tall buffet lamps on the table or floor depends on the overall height of the lamp and table combined. Generally, the combined height should not exceed 58”-64” high, as this not only presents a toppling hazard but also can make the room appear smaller by comparison. You should also consider the height of the lamp in relation to the table. The taller the table is, the shorter the lamp should be.
The width of the lamp’s base is also a critical factor, as a narrower base makes it less stable. Tall buffet lamps with a narrow base are better suited for floor placement, while shorter, wider pieces are ideal for a buffet or console table.
Using two tall buffet lamps on a console, sofa table, or buffet creates symmetry, giving your space a polished, formal appearance; however, this is not the only configuration you can use.
A single statement lamp at one end of the table balanced by a small odd-numbered group of various sized complementary decor pieces gives a casual yet pulled-together vibe that appears more organic. This option is ideal for living areas, dine-in kitchens, and informal entryways.
If you have small end tables at either end of the sofa or next to an armchair, a tall buffet lamp 15”- 25” high is a great option as a reading light.
