Any homebody knows you can never have too many lamps, especially when they are as well-made and eye-catching as these Wes Anderson-approved designs from Lladró. For these cordless table lamps, carved wood is swapped for the brand’s signature glazed porcelain including the lamp shade, a translucent porcelain screen. Opt for the Firefly collection inspired by the light emitted by fireflies or the Kokeshi collection which takes the silhouette of traditional dolls from Japan’s Tohoku region – both have glossy bases with gold toned detailing which will subtly bounce light around your home.

When a home brand describes its products as made ‘with love and naughtiness’, you know you’re in for a collection of joyful, tongue-in-cheek interiors.

To celebrate the 150^th anniversary of thetimeless pattern, the brand has reimagined it in a sea of vivid colours. Make your dinner setting pop by mixing and matching colourways or opt for a bold aesthetic by embracing a single hue.

At first glance, you might mistake these intricate Italian-made lamps for ornaments, but they are in fact decorative design lamps from Slamp. Hand-crafted using unbreakable technopolymer sheets that are cold cut so as not to release harmful emissions, each lamp ismeticulously shaped by hand as if they were textiles. The brand also calls its all-female team of sculptors the Sarte della Luce, which translates to Seamstresses of Light. The result? A poetic bouquet that comes to light – quite literally – after dark. You’ll want to keep these ambience-enhancing pieces on display.
