Product Insights
The Openwork Cord Table Lamp from Simons Maison (128 CAD, in stock) delivers a warm, evenly diffused golden glow through its linen cord base, but its soft, ambient output is not suited for task lighting. The stepless rotary dimmer works best with quality dimmable LEDs (e.g., Philips, Osram, IKEA) to provide flicker-free dimming from 20% to 100% while deepening the warm hue, though the linen weave transmits less light than cotton and requires careful cleaning with a barely-damp cloth.
Verified claims
- Light quality
- The ivory linen lampshade diffuses light evenly and shifts it to a soft, evenly diffused golden glow, but transmits less light than cotton.
- Dimmer behavior
- The lamp is dimmable via a built-in stepless rotary dimmer, and dimming deepens the warm glow without turning cold; for flicker-free LED dimming, use a high-quality dimmable LED bulb.
- Cleaning
- Dab linen cord base with barely-damp cloth; blot immediately.
- Lighting role
- Designed for soft, dimmable ambient lighting; not suited for task lighting.
- Dimming performance
- Dimmable LEDs from Philips, Osram, or IKEA yield flicker-free dimming from 20% to 100%.
- Bulb compatibility
- The lamp takes an E26-base bulb up to 100 W; a bulb is not included and must be bought separately.
- Assembly and stability
- Buyers found assembly easy, but some found the lamp a bit wobbly and noted the shade can spin freely.
- Shade quality control
- Some buyers received lampshades with visible defects, including black or red marks from stray threads.
- Shade lining
- Simons Maison does not specify whether the linen lampshade is lined; it is described as giving soft dimmed light, but without a lining, hot spots could appear depending on the bulb.
- Base material
- The base is an openwork structure made of natural woven linen cord over a metal frame.
- Power/cord
- The lamp plugs into a standard wall outlet and has a 6-foot power cord.

A sculptural accent light for dressing up a room
Use this table lamp as a decorative accent that adds visual texture to a space, whether your decor leans modern or classic. Its openwork linen cord base gives a room a Scandinavian look with a relaxed bohemian feel, and it emits soft light for a warm ambiance. Since the base and stem may feel wobbly, it works best in spots where it will not get bumped, rather than high-traffic family areas.[1]
Adding soft, warm ambient light to a room
Use this table lamp as a decorative accent light when you want gentle, dimmable warmth in a space — the rotary switch lets you adjust the intensity, and the openwork cord base lets light filter through for a soft, bohemian look. A bulb is not included, so you'll need an E26 bulb, and the warm glow will depend on the one you choose. Note that some customers report the shade spins freely, so it works best as ambient lighting rather than a lamp you aim for focused tasks.[1,2,3]
Quick setup for a renter's room refresh
This woven-linen table lamp suits a fast, low-commitment lighting update in a rental. A customer reviewer reports the lamp comes together quickly without frustrating instructions or hardware, making easy setup a priority for temporary living situations. Note that the merchant lists light assembly as required, with hardware and instructions included.[1]
A design-forward gift bought online
The lamp's openwork cord design makes it appealing to give as a gift when ordering online. Some shoppers have reported shade defects, so it may be worth ordering with enough time to inspect and exchange the lamp if needed before gifting.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Openwork Cord Table Lamp: Choose this if you want a decorative accent lamp with a relaxed bohemian, Scandinavian-inspired look: an ivory linen drum shade atop an openwork base of woven linen cord over metal, about 21.75 inches tall and 14 inches in diameter, with variable intensity on a rotary switch and warm light when lit. It takes an E26 bulb up to 100 W (not included) and needs light assembly with hardware and instructions included. Note that some reviewers found the base and stem wobbly and the shade spins freely so light direction can't be fixed, making it a poor fit for high-traffic areas or focused task lighting, and a few shades arrived with marks or thread lines, so it's worth checking on arrival.[1] | Openwork Ceramic Base Table Lamp: Choose this if you want a contemporary architectural accent lamp for a side table or nightstand, featuring a glossy openwork ceramic base with a round opening and an ivory linen-blend drum shade. It stands about 25.75 inches tall with a shade measuring 16 inches wide and 11 inches deep, and comes in Taupe or Baby Blue. Note that it requires an E26 bulb up to 100 watts (not included) and light assembly with included hardware and instructions.[4,5,6] | Openwork Matte Ceramic Base Table Lamp: Choose this if you want a lamp with what Simons describes as a contemporary, architectural look: a matte black openwork ceramic base with a large circular cutout and an ivory linen-blend drum shade, in the one-size Black variant. Standing 25.75 inches (65.5 cm) tall with warm illumination from the fabric shade, it suits bedside or accent-table styling. Note it requires a type A60 or A19 bulb (not stated as included) and some assembly is needed.[7,8,9] |

Great service. Love the lamp
Great service. Love the lamp
Nice overall.
The overall aesthetic is what we wanted. Assembly was easy. It’s a bit wobbly I wish it was more substantial somehow and that the shade didn’t just endlessly spin around.

Defects in lampshades
I love these lamps however both lampshades had defects in the shades- random threads causing 2 black marks in one, a black mark and faint red line in the other. I’m still in the queue waiting for approval to return both.
