This Chic $66 West Elm Lamp Instantly Brightens Any Dark Corner (I Want One in Every Color!)

Although we cover a lot of discounted West Elm finds here at AT, sales aren’t the only times you’ll catch us snooping through the retailer’s website. Truth be told, West Elm is a great place to hit up any time you need a bit of home decor inspo. That’s never been more true than right now, considering the brand just dropped its new spring collection, which is full of both contemporary furniture pieces and decorative objects that are sure to liven up even the dullest corners of your home. 

One item that caught my eye — and not just because of its $66 price tag — is the Tommy LED table lamp. In case you haven’t yet hopped on the cordless table lamp bandwagon, there’s no better decor find to inspire you to do so. Although it just launched, I have a feeling the Tommy lamp is going to become a bestseller in no time. For now, though, you can be one of the first to include it in your carefully curated living space.

The most distinctive feature of the Tommy lamp is its pleated shade, which adds a fun flair to the otherwise simple design. Measuring just under 15 inches tall and 5.4 inches wide, the lamp is small enough to fit in tight spaces while still casting a cozy but substantial light over your desktop or coffee table. The body of the lamp is acrylic while the shade is made of steel, and it comes with a built-in LED light that you can’t remove. Instead of switching out a bulb, you recharge the lamp between uses and, in turn, get to avoid dealing with a pesky cord. What’s more, the Tommy lamp is dimmable, so you can adjust its brightness level based on the mood you’re trying to achieve. Oh, and did I mention it comes in four colors? You can grab it in white, black, sage green, moonstone gray, or multiple hues!

In addition to looking cute, the Tommy lamp is so convenient to use, which you’ll know if you’ve ever used a portable lamp. Because it’s lightweight and cordless, you can easily move it from room to room to add some brightness to any spot that needs it, whether that’s your nightstand or bathroom shelf. The lamp makes a statement, but its compact size prevents it from feeling overwhelming. In other words, you still get to use essentially all of your desk or entryway table space. You’ll also find that the built-in LED bulb emits a warm light, which will make any spot look that much homier, unlike cool-toned or overhead light.

I have a portable table lamp in my own apartment, and it frequently comes in handy during late-night reads and when I’m working from home. But because my roommates also like to move it around, I would recommend grabbing two or more if you’re thinking about getting your own cordless lamp. In any case, the Tommy lamp is perfect for any interior decor style, and it won’t break the bank, either.
