The PARIA table lamp consists of a flat square base, an upright column of rectangular section and a 12 cm glass globe set against the side of the upper part of the column. The painted aluminium body is grey beige (RAL 7044). The grey-beige body stands apart from the milky white glass with a soft contrast. The globe is opal glass, so the bulb does not show through it.
Size and where to put it
The lamp is 25 cm high and its base takes up 14 × 15 cm — a footprint to compare with the free space on a bedside table, chest of drawers or shelf. It weighs 1.02 kg.
The manufacturer intends the PARIA series for, among other rooms, the bedroom and living room: the lamp can stand beside a bed or on a chest of drawers in the living room. The switch is on the cable, so you turn the lamp on without reaching for the fitting itself.
Bulb and light
The lamp has one G9 lampholder for an LED bulb of up to 12 W. The bulb is not included, so it has to be bought separately, which also lets you choose the colour of the light: 2700 K gives warm, slightly yellowish light, 3000 K warm white and 4000 K neutral light.
The opal glass spreads light over the whole surface of the globe, so the lamp gives a soft glow all around rather than a directed beam onto the table top. It is mood lighting, not a desk lamp for work.
Form and series
The form is minimalist: base, column and globe are three plain shapes with no ornament, in a single body colour.
The PARIA series also includes a wall light and ceiling lights with two and three globes, all in white, black and grey beige RAL 7044 and with the same 12 cm globes — so the table lamp can be matched with a wall or ceiling fitting in the same room.
