Wood Twist Floor Lamp

A wood twist floor lamp can be thought of as a room’s jewelry. When buying one, make sure you choose the piece that is right for the space. The right one has the ability to complement the décor existing in the room. Think of the style of your space first. Is it eclectic? Modern? Perhaps it is traditional.

• Within a modern room, you can add a playful touch with the use of a wood twist floor lamp with a quirky shade. You may want a classy lamp with a wooden base. If so, then think streamlined and simple as your shade for the wood twist floor lamp. Currently in vogue are drum-shaped shades added to slim wood twist bases as they add drama and height to a room without overpowering the existing décor.
• For a timeless appeal, a shade with a more tapered shape will blend with your traditional style room.
• If your room needs texture or color, an interesting shade will give you the boost that you are looking for. Choose one with an interesting texture, decorative touches (e.g. beads and tassels), or a bold pattern.

A wood twist floor lamp’s height will influence what it can illuminate. For instance, if the bulb is near your head while you are sitting, then it will offer brightness that is what you need for working or reading. Having the bulb higher up won’t give you task lighting but it will definitely refrain you from hitting your head.

What you want is to have the right balance. The ideal is you get the task lighting that you need without the lamp blocking your way. Before you make a final decision, check the lamp’s height first so you know if it works for you.

Most wood twist floor lamps have narrow bases so they can easily fit wherever convenient for you. If the one you choose is an exception, then take into account the space that is available in your home so the lamp isn’t a tripping hazard.

Wood twist floor lamps can cost as low as $50 each for simpler models. They're functional but they don’t have an impact to the space. On the other side of the spectrum are higher end models that are carefully crafted and made to enhance a room’s look and feel. The expensive ones can go up to $1,000 each.

Of course, there are wood twist floor lamps that are in the middle in terms of price. This means regardless of what your budget is, you will be able to get the lamp that can fit your basic needs. You don’t have to spend thousands of dollars if you can find a cheaper lamp that meets your visual desires.
