GlassNovel Stained Glass Book Lamp

The GlassNovel Stained Glass Book Lamp is a collector's piece shaped like a stack of richly coloured books. Each panel is worked in stained glass, so the lamp holds its character as an object even before it is switched on. Lit, the panels glow softly and throw pools of colour across a shelf or side table, giving the room a storybook quality that suits readers, artists and anyone drawn to handmade decor.

Every lamp is individually made using traditional stained glass techniques, which means the colour, texture and leading vary a little from piece to piece. The glass is kiln-fired and durable, holding its colour over years of use, and the textured surface diffuses the light rather than letting it glare. The result is a warm, ambient glow instead of task brightness, closer in feel to candlelight than to a reading lamp.

It suits a bedside table, a reading nook, a study shelf or the end of a bookcase, and makes a considered gift for a book lover. Place it on a level surface where it will not be knocked, as stained glass is handmade and can chip. For indoor use only. Wipe the panels gently with a dry or barely damp soft cloth, and keep the cable tucked away from walkways.
