The Origin of Tripod Floor Lamps

The sets of old film studios inspired the original designers of tripod floor lamps. Look closer, and the similarity of tripod floor lamps to camera lenses and tripod studio lighting is unmistakable. Therefore, the term tripod floor lamp is also commonly used for this type of lighting. The robust lamp base with industrial valve handwheels and plenty of old-world details gives the tripod floor lamps the typical film industry look - reminiscent of a film tripod of days gone by. A retro lampshade, which sits enthroned on the tripod lamp like a spotlight, completes the look of this spotlight lamp. With as many adjustable elements as possible on the base and lampshade, it is ideal for illuminating specific areas, such as a favourite photo wall or a cosy reading corner in the living room. What do you want to put in the spotlight?

Tripod Floor Lamps Made of Wood

If you favour natural elements in your home accessories, tripod floor lamps made of wood are a great way to enhance your interior. Because one thing is certain: the popular raw material wood is ideal for modern lamp design. Light, dark, with grain or smoothly sanded: There are almost endless possibilities for using wood in lamp form. Light wood for typical Scandinavian floor lights or rustic wood for authentic vintage flair at home - not all wood is the same.

Incidentally, tripod floor lamps made of wood look best with warm white light bulbs. Then the light really brings out the natural beauty of the wood and allows the individual grains and colour nuances to take effect in the room. Did you know that wood, with its mostly textured surface, harmonises particularly well with rough metals, as is popular in the vintage and industrial look? It's a case of opposites attract.

Tripod floor lamps are also very popular in the classic version with a simple, single-colour lampshade. In our online shop, you will find many tripod floor lamps with a lampshade in grey, black or white that will bring contemporary elegance to your favourite rooms. Combined with a chic silver lamp base, gold or black legs, the floor lamps look chic and tasteful.
