Why buy a pre-loved table lamp?

After all, we think it's extra special that each one has already had an owner. And did you know that the label second-hand does not necessarily mean anything about the condition of the lamp? Each item on Whoppah is curated on age, condition and brand, among other things. So you know exactly what to expect from your future second-hand table lamp!

A vintage table lamp for every style

A beautiful vintage Gispen, a cool space age mushroom lamp or a modern, high-end Kartell table lamp: we have light sculptures in various styles and materials. Many vintage lamps are made of (smoked or murano) glass, brass, chrome and steel. These materials are still widely used today in the production of modern lamps because they make them last a long time. So the pre-loved table lamps on Whoppah can still last a few rounds. Which style suits you?

Frequently asked questions about table lamps

How do you place a table lamp?

Design or vintage table lamps are especially useful on bedside tables and desks, and they cast a pleasant, warm light when placed on a shelf or as a window light. A table lamp can also be a bright [study lamp](/en/ lighting/ desk lamps) or spotlight, which can be pointed downwards on a tabletop or towards a wall. Many cordless or portable table lamps can be used both indoors and outdoors, and our outdoor lamp range includes elegant table lamps for the patio and other table lamps suitable for outdoor use.

How do I choose a table lamp?

First, think about where you want to use your new table lamp. Pendant lamps, ceiling lights and desk lamps often have an adjustable arm and shade to direct the light where you want it. Modern table lamps can also have a variety of technical features, such as a touch dimmer, timer or rechargeable battery.

How many lumens do you need for a designer table lamp?

Choose a bulb for your table lamp based on its function and the size of the living space. When using an LED lamp, about 450 lumens, equivalent to a 40-watt incandescent bulb should be sufficient for general purposes, such as reading and writing. Lower lumen values are great for ambient or decorative lighting. If you need particularly efficient light for working, the brightness can range from around 800 to even 2,500 lumens, depending on the size of the living space.
