SQUIGGLE
Floor Lamp · Wavy Stem · Pleated Shade
01
Overview
A Brush Stroke that Lights the Room
What a fun piece! Add instant visual appeal to your space with the fun wavy lamp. It would look amazing with a pleated lamp shade!
A sinuous black metal stem rises from a polished iron base in a single, flowing brush-stroke curve — neither geometric nor random, but somewhere in between. At the top, a pleated fabric lampshade catches and diffuses the warm glow of an E14 bulb (yours to choose). The result is a floor lamp that reads as much as sculpture as it does as a light source — a piece that animates a quiet corner rather than just illuminating it. Available in a single height (Dia 43cm x H 150cm) with three pleated shade colors: Beige, White, or Dark green.
Postmodern Design Language · Memphis-Inspired
Drawing on the playful, free-form curves popularised by the Memphis Group in 1980s Milan and continued through contemporary art-deco-revival lighting — the squiggle is more brush stroke than hardware, a deliberate counterpoint to the rectilinearity of most floor lamps.

05
The Squiggle
Defining Form
Wavy Metal Stem · Hand-Bent Curve
A single black metal pole bent into a flowing, free-hand curve — neither geometric nor random.
The stem is the entire personality of the lamp. Three deliberate curves rise from the polished iron base to the shade above — far enough from a straight pole to read as sculptural, controlled enough to remain elegant rather than chaotic. The curve extends the lamp's centre of gravity outward, which is why the iron base is intentionally weighted: without that counterbalance, the squiggle would tip. Every Squiggle ships with the stem as a single pre-bent piece — never assembled on-site — so the curve is consistent across every unit.
06
Materials & Craft
Three Pillars
Black Metal Stem
A single solid metal pole bent into the signature squiggle curve, finished in matte powder-coated Black. Strong enough to hold the shade and bulb assembly steady, slim enough to read as a brush stroke rather than a structural element. The black finish is fixed — the only customisation is the shade color above.
Pleated Fabric Shade
A pleated fabric lampshade in your choice of Beige, White, or Dark green. The vertical pleats serve a dual purpose: visual rhythm (echoing the wavy stem below in a different register), and light diffusion (the folds soften the bulb's glow into a warm, even pool of light). Removable for cleaning or replacement.
Polished Iron Base
A weighted polished iron base anchors the lamp securely on hardwood, tile, or carpet. The weight is intentional: the squiggle stem extends the centre of gravity outward, so the base counterbalances to prevent tipping. Polished finish to match the black metal stem above — a subtle gloss that catches floor-level light.

Bulb Recommendation. The Squiggle takes an E14 base bulb (small Edison screw, sometimes called SES) — bulb is not included, you'll need to source one separately. Recommended: a soft white LED E14 at 25-40W equivalent (4-6W actual draw) for warm ambient glow, or a vintage filament-style E14 LED for a more decorative look through the pleated shade. Avoid bulbs over 40W to stay within the fabric shade's heat tolerance.

Setup
Easy Assembly · 5-10 Minutes
- Watch the product video for a visual walkthrough of how the Squiggle goes together.
- Unpack the long box (L 148cm x W 30cm x H 25cm). Inside: the pre-bent squiggle stem (single piece), the polished iron base, the pleated fabric shade, and the cable with in-line switch.
- Step 1: Screw the squiggle stem onto the iron base. Hand-tighten — no tools required.
- Step 2: Thread the cable up through the stem (if not pre-threaded) and connect to the bulb socket at the top.
- Step 3: Source an E14 bulb separately (25-40W equivalent LED recommended) and screw it into the socket.
- Step 4: Attach the pleated fabric shade to the top of the stem.
- Step 5: Plug the cable into a standard wall outlet matching your selected plug option. Use the in-line switch on the cord to turn the lamp on/off.
- Total assembly time: typically 5-10 minutes with no special tools beyond what's included. One-person setup.
- Cable safety: route the cable against walls or under rugs to prevent trip hazards. The lamp's iron base is weighted to prevent tipping, but a snagged cable can still pull the entire fixture over.

Questions
Frequently Asked
What design language inspired the Squiggle Floor Lamp?
The Squiggle Floor Lamp draws on postmodern design vocabulary — specifically the playful, free-form curves popularised by the Memphis Group movement in 1980s Milan and continued through contemporary art-deco-revival lighting. The defining feature is the sinuous "squiggle" stem: a single black metal pole bent into a flowing, free-hand curve that reads more like a brush stroke than a piece of hardware. Paired with the pleated fabric shade, it creates a balance between whimsical and sophisticated — a sculptural object that happens to provide light.
What size is the Squiggle Floor Lamp?
The Squiggle Floor Lamp is offered in a single standard size: Dia 43cm x H 150cm (∅ 17″ x H 59″). At 150cm tall, it works well next to sofas, reading chairs, or in living-room corners — tall enough to throw light over the head of a seated person but not so tall it competes with ceiling-height fixtures. The shade diameter (43cm / 17″) creates a generous, atmospheric pool of light without overwhelming the wavy stem.
Which shade color should I choose: Beige, White, or Dark green?
Beige — warmest, most timeless option, pairs well with cream walls, mid-century furniture, and Bohemian palettes. White — most neutral, brightest light output (more lumens reach the room), works in any modern or minimalist interior. Dark green — most expressive and editorial, casts a moodier, jewel-tone glow, ideal for libraries, reading nooks, or rooms with rich wood or velvet. All three are pleated fabric — the pleats catch light beautifully regardless of color choice.
Which plug option should I choose: US, UK, AU, or EU?
Choose the plug type matching your destination's wall outlet: US plug for North America (Type A/B, 120V), UK plug for the United Kingdom and Ireland (Type G, 230V), AU plug for Australia and New Zealand (Type I, 230V), or EU plug for Continental Europe (Type C/F, 230V). The lamp itself supports full-range AC 110-240V, so the choice only determines the plug shape — not the lamp's electrical compatibility.
What kind of bulb does it use? Is one included?
The Squiggle Floor Lamp uses an E14 base bulb (small Edison screw, sometimes called SES) — and no, the bulb is NOT included. You'll need to source one separately. Recommended: a soft white LED E14 bulb at 25-40W equivalent (4-6W actual LED draw) for ambient warmth, or a vintage filament-style E14 LED for a more decorative look through the pleated shade. Avoid bulbs over 40W to stay safe within the fabric shade's heat tolerance.
How does the switch work? Is it on the cord or the lamp body?
The Squiggle uses an in-line on/off push-button switch — a small switch built into the cord roughly between the lamp body and the wall plug. This means you can turn the lamp on/off without bending down to reach a switch on the lamp itself, and without needing to flip a wall switch. Note: this is on/off only, not a dimmer. If you want to dim the lamp, you'd need to use a dimmable E14 bulb with a separate dimmer plug adapter, or replace the in-line switch with a foot dimmer.
How does it ship? Is the squiggle stem one piece?
The Squiggle ships in a single long box (L 148cm x W 30cm x H 25cm) containing the wavy stem (delivered as a single pre-bent piece — not assembled on-site), the iron base, the pleated fabric shade, and the cable with switch. Assembly involves screwing the stem onto the base, attaching the shade, and threading the cable — typically 5-10 minutes with no special tools beyond what's included. Two-person handling is not required.
Is it heavy enough not to tip over?
Yes. The polished iron base is intentionally weighted to counterbalance the asymmetric, wavy stem above it — without this, the lamp would be tip-prone given how the squiggle shape extends the centre of gravity outward. The base anchors the lamp securely on hardwood, tile, or carpet. That said, it is still a fabric-shaded floor lamp — keep it away from high-traffic areas where children or pets might catch the cable, and keep the cable routed against walls or under rugs to prevent trip hazards.
Is it suitable for a bedroom or children's room?
Yes for adult bedrooms — the in-line switch makes it easy to turn off from bed (no need to find a switch in the dark), and the warm fabric-shade glow is well-suited to evening ambient lighting. For children's rooms, use with caution: the wavy stem is sculptural and could attract a child's attention, and the cord with in-line switch is at child-reachable height. We recommend keeping it out of children's bedrooms or routing the cable carefully and using only LED bulbs (which run cool to the touch) if installing near a child's space.
Can I use it outdoors or in a bathroom?
No. The Squiggle Floor Lamp is rated IP20 for dry indoor use only — not suitable for bathrooms, wet rooms, covered porches, or outdoor environments. The fabric shade in particular is not designed for prolonged humidity exposure and would degrade quickly in damp conditions.
What style of room does it suit best?
The Squiggle is at home in eclectic, mid-century, postmodern, and Bohemian interiors — anywhere a sculptural lighting accent is welcome. Particularly good fit: living-room reading corners, bedroom nightstand alternatives, home offices that want a non-architectural touch, gallery-style entryways, and creative studios. It's not the right choice for strict minimalist rooms (where the squiggle reads as visual noise), or industrial-loft interiors (where straight-line lighting works better).
Can I use it with both 110V and 220V outlets?
Yes. The Squiggle Floor Lamp supports full-range AC 110-240V — meaning it works in both North American (120V) and European/Australian (220-240V) outlets without needing a transformer or voltage adapter. Just choose the matching plug option at checkout (US plug, UK plug, AU plug, or EU plug).
Is the shade adjustable or fixed?
The pleated fabric shade is fixed in orientation — it sits horizontally at the top of the squiggle stem and cannot be tilted or angled. The shade itself is removable for cleaning or replacement, but during normal use it stays in a single horizontal position. The squiggle stem creates visual movement; the shade itself does not move.

Rayonshine Collection — Line & Form
One line, bent to light.
Seven shapes, one line — bent, arced, or pleated.
Shop the Collection →Watch each shape come together
The Method
Line becomes structure
Nothing in this group starts as a lamp. It starts as a flat strip of fabric or a straight length of tube — something with no shape of its own yet.
Getting there is different for every piece: some take their curve from a hand-guided bend, others from a single fold pressed over and over until it holds. What ties them together isn't the technique, it's the honesty of it — the line you see from across the room is the same line doing the structural work.
Craftsmanship
From straight line to finished form — four steps
Draw the line
A straight rod or tube gets its first curve here, guided by hand or set against a jig.
Set the shape
Heat and steady pressure lock that curve in for good, so it holds its own weight once it's standing on its own.
Pleat the shade
The same crease gets pressed into the fabric, one fold at a time, until the whole shade reads as one even pattern.
Fit and finish
Base, socket, and wiring go on last, and each piece gets checked by hand for balance before it ships.
Choose Your Shape

Arc Floor Lamp
Marcella Arc Floor Lamp
A long arc sweeps out and over — set it beside a sofa or reading chair to get light exactly where you're sitting, arm out of the way.

Elden Pleated Table Lamp
A slim, upright pleated shade — the folds read as fine texture in daylight and as soft ribs once it's lit.

A ripple of line stood on end — the curves catch light differently as the day moves across the room.
Materials
What it's made of
The arced and squiggled pieces are powder-coated steel tube or rod. The pleated shades sit over a lightweight frame wrapped in finely folded fabric. Bases run weighted metal or stone-composite, sized to keep each piece stable.
Every piece takes a standard dimmer switch. Indoor use only.
Care
Keeping it right
- Wipe metal arms down with a soft, dry cloth — skip anything abrasive on the painted finish.
- Spot-clean pleated shades with a light touch; don't soak or submerge them.
- Keep pleated pieces out of humid rooms and away from direct moisture.
- Move floor lamps by the base — the arm isn't built to carry the weight.

Questions
Before you order
What's the difference between Elden and Perla?
Same pleating, two silhouettes: Elden runs narrow and upright, Perla is rounder and fuller. Choose based on the footprint you have and how soft you want the light.
Are the arc and squiggle lamps dimmable?
Yes — every piece in this collection works with a standard dimmer switch.
Can the pleated shades be spot-cleaned?
Yes, with a soft dry brush or a barely damp cloth. Steer clear of soaking the fabric or using harsh cleaners.
How stable are the floor lamps with a long arc reach?
Both Caprani and Marcella sit on a base weighted to counterbalance the arm's reach — check the product page for exact base dimensions before placing one near a busy walkway.
What's the lead time?
Reach out for current lead times — the pleated shades especially are made to order.
