Color

The first table lamp in our catalogue — a piece of Lincoln's Inn for a calm desk.

The banker's lamp is one of those silhouettes that simply cannot be improved upon — a wide, bowed metal shade pitched forward over an antique-brass column, softened by a single brass pull-cord chain, mounted on a stepped brass plinth. Lincoln is our take on it: faithful in proportion, refined in finish, designed for the rooms where light is meant to be quiet, considered, and useful in equal measure.

Named for Lincoln's Inn — the Holborn quarter of barristers' chambers, leather-bound legal libraries and Tudor archways where the silhouette was first associated with serious work after dark. Lincoln is the lamp for a Georgian writing desk, a console table beside a wing-back armchair, a bedside in a panelled bedroom, or a study where a book is more often open than not.

Three colourways — quietly considered, jewelled, or properly heritage

  • White — matt-white bowed metal shade with a polished brass interior. Calm, neutral, library-modern. The version for desks, hallway consoles, and bedrooms where the lamp should be felt rather than seen.
  • Blue — cobalt-blue glass shade in the heritage banker's lamp tradition. Jewelled, statement, deep saturated colour against any green, oxblood, walnut or panelled wall. The version for studies, snug bars, and rooms that want a little drama after sundown.
  • Green — the emerald-green glass shade that is the banker's lamp. The most recognisable silhouette in lighting — Lincoln's Inn, Temple Chambers, every legal thriller study and every map-room library. Glowing, jewelled, unimprovable. For studies, libraries, and any desk that takes itself a little seriously.

Where it works best

Lincoln is plug-and-play in the truest sense — set it on a Georgian writing desk, a marble-topped console, a bedside table, a leather-topped library table, or beside a wing-back chair, plug it in, and it works. The pull-cord chain means you switch it on and off without leaving your reading. The forward-pitched shade pools light directly onto the surface in front of it — perfect for reading, writing, working, or simply lighting a small evening tableau.

Pair Lincoln on a console with a wall-mounted Whitechapel amber-glass gooseneck above for layered evening light, or beneath one of Marlow's scalloped brass sconces for a properly considered hallway moment.
