Product Insights
The Round Metal Table Lamp by Simons Maison (retailer since 1840) delivers warm white light (2700K–3000K, CRI 80) from two G9 LEDs adjustable 400–960 lumens via bulb swap, not dimmable. LEDs rated for enclosed fixtures ensure safe operation despite metal shade heat, cutting energy 80–90% and lasting 25k–50k hours. At $199 CAD, the $63 premium over Eglo adds dual G9 sockets, a 13.75-inch height, and 12-inch shade fitting standard nightstands, with a 72-inch cord and inline switch for easy on/off. Maintenance-free for 10+ years with proper bulbs, the tradeoff is non-dimmability and required use of enclosed-rated bulbs.
Verified claims

Deep Research
G9 bulb options and brightness
- G9 LED bulbs are rated for 15,000 to 50,000 hours — enough for over a decade of nightly use — eliminating the frequent halogen swaps that are particularly tedious in a twin-bulb fixture where one burnout leaves the lamp imbalanced.
- The Philips 4W G9 LED (model 8720169301573) sets a concrete reference: 480 lumens output, 2700K warm white light, CRI 80 color accuracy, and a 320° beam angle that spreads light evenly across the lamp's rounded shade — a pairing that delivers the soft, ambient glow this minimalist lamp is designed for.
- With two G9 sockets, total lamp output can be tuned from roughly 400 lumens (using lower-wattage accent bulbs) up to about 960 lumens (two Philips 480lm units), spanning dim bedroom ambiance to bright task lighting sufficient for reading without additional fixtures.
- A 3–5W G9 LED replaces a 40W halogen with the same brightness, cutting energy use by up to 80% and significantly reducing heat output — an important difference inside this lamp's metal shade, where halogen bulbs could make the fixture uncomfortably warm to the touch.
Value versus similar round metal lamps
- Backed by La Maison Simons, a Quebec retailer founded in 1840, this lamp inherits nearly two centuries of Canadian retail trust — a narrative that anonymous online lighting brands cannot offer, and a deciding factor for buyers who value provenance.
- At $199 CAD, this lamp positions itself between the $136 Eglo Morescana (single E26, 19.49-inch height) and pricier designer pieces — for the $63 premium over the Eglo, you get a dual G9 configuration that cuts height by nearly 6 inches while hanging a larger 12-inch shade, a silhouette difference that makes it viable for low-clearance nightstands where the Morescana would feel obtrusive.
Inline cord switch convenience
- A cord-mounted inline switch eliminates the need to fumble under the metal lampshade for a base switch, a benefit that is particularly practical for a nightstand where the lamp base may be crowded by other items; the switch stays accessible at cord level so you can operate the light from a reclined position without shifting.
Fit on a nightstand or desk
- The 72-inch cord frees the lamp from being tethered close to an outlet, allowing it to reach across a large desk or around a bedside table that sits far from a socket — a small practical detail that prevents your nightstand from being locked into a corner for power access.
- With a shade diameter of 12 inches, this lamp falls at the narrow end of the 12–16 inch range typically recommended for standard 18–24 inch wide nightstands, meaning it sits proportionally without overhang on compact surfaces.
Heat and finish care for metal lamps
- The lamp's black painted metal finish is the lowest-maintenance surface in contemporary lighting — a soft damp cloth removes dust and fingerprints without any cleaning product, keeping the minimalist design crisp with a wipe-down that takes seconds.
- Because metal shades bounce radiated heat back toward the bulb rather than letting it escape, an all-metal fixture like this round table lamp can concentrate warmth around the G9 sockets — a thermal behavior that makes the switch to G9 LED bulbs especially impactful for safe, comfortable extended use.
- Because metal shades can trap enough heat to stress even LED components, selecting G9 LED bulbs specifically certified for enclosed fixtures protects the lamp's internal electronics and prevents premature bulb failure — a small specification detail that translates to fewer replacements and consistent performance.
- A quick weekly dusting with a dry microfiber cloth — especially across the shade's top where dust settles — stops grime from trapping moisture against the metal, a simple habit that prevents the gradual tarnishing and corrosion that can degrade even painted surfaces over time.
- For occasional deeper cleaning, painted metal finishes demand only a soft cloth with mild dish soap and water — never abrasive scrubbers, steel wool, or chemical polishes — to avoid scratching the black coating and permanently dulling the matte appearance.

Q&A
2 answered- Is the lamp dimmable? The inline cord switch is described but not whether it supports dimming.
- This lamp uses a standard inline cord switch, which offers on/off control only; it is not dimmable.
- What color temperature (warm vs cool) G9 bulbs does the manufacturer recommend for optimal appearance?
- The manufacturer does not specify a recommended color temperature. For a warm, cozy ambiance typical of bedside or living room lamps, we suggest using G9 bulbs with a color temperature of 2700K to 3000K (warm white).
