Love: The Right Lamps...

..as they serve as the jewelry in the room. Each room composition is unique and they can either play a supporting role or be the sculptural star. I'm a fan of using identical lamps to flank a sofa, but different end tables from the same collection (as long as their heights are within an inch of each other)...too much symmetry creates tension in a room... My only rule is to never have the eye see a bulb when sitting or standing, decorative bulb lamps notwithstanding... Some great offerings below:
