The Timeless Art of Pleated Lighting
The art of pleated lampshades dates back to the 19th century, when European craftsmen began transforming simple paper and delicate fabrics into beautifully folded shades designed to soften and diffuse light. Instructions for creating pleated paper lampshades appeared as early as 1876, and the style later became a beloved feature of Victorian interiors. In the early 1900s, Danish designer Peder Vilhelm Jensen-Klint elevated the technique through intricate paper folding, helping establish pleated lighting as an enduring expression of craftsmanship. Each carefully arranged fold serves a purpose, gently filtering illumination while creating a beautiful interplay of light and shadow. More than a century later, the pleated shade remains a symbol of understated elegance, bringing warmth, texture, and timeless character to thoughtfully designed interiors.
The Beauty of Feeling at Home
A beautiful home is more than the furniture that fills it. It's the atmosphere you create and the moments you cherish within it. With its softly illuminated ivory pleats and elegant brass detailing, the Colette Pleated Table Lamp brings a sense of warmth and quiet luxury to any living space. Whether casting a gentle glow over an evening conversation or illuminating a peaceful moment at the end of the day, Colette creates an inviting ambiance that makes every room feel a little more extraordinary. Timeless in design and graceful in presence, it's a reminder that sometimes the smallest details make a house feel like home.

What kind of bulb does it use?
The Colette takes one standard E26/E27 bulb, either LED or Edison. An LED gives a soft, cool-running glow through the pleated shade, and a warm white one looks especially cozy.
How do I turn it on?
It has two switches. Use the pull-cord switch under the shade, or the inline push-button on the cord.
How big is it, and where does it fit?
It stands 18.9 in (48 cm) tall with a 10.2 in (26 cm) shade, so it suits a nightstand, desk, shelf or console table. The plug-in cord is 59.1 in (150 cm), so you can place it a little way from the outlet.
