Aviano POP SERPENT LX23818 magenta ceramic table lamp, E27

POP SERPENT LX23818 is an Aviano ceramic table lamp with a curved, S-shaped body. Its glossy red-magenta finish follows the rounded bends, while one exposed bulb sits above the end of the base. There is no conventional lampshade, so the shape of the bulb you choose becomes part of the lamp's appearance.

A low body with a 29 cm width

The manufacturer lists a height of 20 cm and a width of 29 cm. Compare the width with the clear surface available on your furniture: the body extends sideways rather than rising from a narrow upright stem. On a chest of drawers, sofa-side table or bedside cabinet, allow room for the ceramic base and the cable route.

The large globe bulb shown in the photographs projects above the ceramic body. Its size therefore matters when positioning the lamp beneath a shelf, as well as when deciding on its appearance. Check the dimensions of your chosen bulb against the space above the fitting before ordering it.

Choose the E27 bulb separately

This fitting has one E27 socket, and the manufacturer specifies 40 W. A bulb is not supplied. The light source in the photographs illustrates a possible arrangement rather than the contents of the package. Brightness and light colour depend on the bulb purchased separately, so the fitting does not impose a fixed colour temperature.

The textile-covered cable has an on/off switch. The manufacturer identifies the lamp as non-dimmable; it should not be selected on the assumption that built-in controls will adjust its brightness.

Curved ceramic as a decorative feature

The sculptural outline suits a contemporary interior where the lamp itself is visible. It can serve as supplementary lighting in a living room or bedroom; the manufacturer also suggests a home office and a teenager's room. Consider the viewing position when placing it, since the bulb is not concealed behind a shade. The glossy magenta finish identifies LX23818, rather than the vanilla-coloured version of this collection.
