Crystal Touch Table Lamp – Gold, Black or White Acrylic Bedside Light

A bedside lamp with a faceted crystal-effect acrylic body and a touch control, in Gold, Black or White. Faceting is the whole point of the form: cut faces catch light from different angles, so the body sparkles from a source elsewhere in the room rather than depending only on its own output. Acrylic rather than cut glass keeps it light and hard to break at a bedside.

Facets on a translucent body do something specific once the lamp is lit. Light strikes each cut face from the inside at a different angle and leaves at a different angle, which scatters the output rather than sending it straight outward, and throws small bright points onto the surfaces nearby. The touch control suits the bedside context, where a switch has to be found in the dark without looking for it.

It belongs on a nightstand, where a faceted surface has something to catch in a dark room. Gold is the warmest of the three; Black makes the facets read as edges and outlines rather than as sparkle.
