Ambra Table Lamp

Short (9.8"): compact scale for standard bedside nightstands, narrow entryway consoles, dressing vanity applications, and side tables where the fixture should be quietly present without dominating the surface. Also correct for beds with high-headboard-visibility considerations (the shorter Ambra keeps the amber shade below the top of a taller headboard for cleaner sight-lines). Tall (12.6"): considered scale for taller entryway consoles, living-room side tables next to sofas or armchairs, home-office desk accents, and any surface where a slightly more visually-present fixture reads correctly. The extended base column adds sculptural sophistication while preserving the compact 8.7" footprint. Both sizes share the same amber glass shade and same 12W LED — the only difference is the base column height.

Atmospheric ambient, not extended-reading task register. The Ambra is deliberately calibrated as a warm-atmosphere accent lamp rather than a task-lighting fixture. The 12W integrated LED filtered through the amber glass shade produces the signature golden mood-setter glow — beautiful for evening ambient, bedside pre-sleep register, and short-session casual page-glancing — but not designed for extended detailed reading of small-print books, technical documents, or paper work sessions. For actual task reading, pair the Ambra with a dedicated task lamp (bright white spectrum, adjustable arm), or upgrade the colour temperature to 4000K neutral by contacting support before ordering.

Because it produces a warmer, more atmospheric glow. White or opal glass shades diffuse bulb light neutrally — the result is soft even ambient character similar to natural daylight, which is correct for task-adjacent applications. Amber glass filters the LED output through the material's own honey-golden colour cast, producing a saturated warm glow that carries amber colour into the surrounding room rather than reading as neutral illumination. This makes the Ambra particularly correct for evening register applications where the fixture should signal "considered warm atmosphere" rather than task illumination. If you want a whiter register, we recommend our Piega (bone china ceramic) or Kasa (washi paper) fixtures instead.

Integrated, not user-replaceable — with ongoing service. The LED module inside the amber glass shade is engineered as part of the fixture's calibrated optics — the 12W output, 3000K warm-white colour temperature, and beam distribution are matched to the amber glass shade's own colour and thickness for the signature golden glow character. This calibration would not be preserved with a standard replaceable bulb, so the design uses an integrated LED for optimal light quality. The module is rated for many years of typical use. If the LED ever fails within the fixture's normal lifespan, we maintain ongoing light-source replacement service — contact support@stuberlighting.com and we'll arrange compatible LED module replacement. Alternative 4000K neutral and 6000K cool colour temperatures available at order time (contact support before placing your order).

Yes — plug the Ambra into a wall outlet controlled by a triac-compatible LED dimmer (Lutron Diva and Caseta triac dimmers are known LED-compatible). The integrated LED is dimming-compatible with common triac wall dimmers. At 30-50% brightness the amber glass shade catches light at its most atmospheric register — particularly correct for evening romantic ambient and pre-sleep bedside use. The inline switch on the cord is on/off only (not itself a dimmer), so wall-outlet dimmer control is the correct dimming path.

Yes — matched Ambra pairs on symmetrical bedsides is one of the fixture's most-loved applications. The walnut wood + amber glass combination reads as considered coordinated Japandi accent when installed as a pair. Because the Ambra is machine-manufactured (not fully handcrafted), individual units are quite consistent — pair units will look effectively identical, with only subtle handmade variation visible in the wood grain pattern and amber glass saturation. Standard shipping practice pulls pair units from the same production batch by default. No additional charge for matched-pair ordering; simply add two of the same size to your cart at checkout.

Walnut wood base: wipe with soft dry microfibre cloth for regular dust; for stubborn marks, slightly damp microfibre with mild dish soap solution then dry immediately. Every 6-12 months, treat with a light wood conditioner (Howard Feed-N-Wax or similar) or beeswax polish to preserve the grain and prevent drying. Avoid ammonia cleaners, harsh solvents, or prolonged direct sunlight exposure. Amber glass shade: wipe with soft dry microfibre cloth for regular dust; for stubborn marks or fingerprints, dampen microfibre with mild dish soap solution (glass cleaner is safe on amber glass) then dry immediately with a fresh cloth. Never use abrasive scouring pads or steel wool — will scratch the glass surface.

Very close, with subtle material variation inherent to natural materials. The walnut wood base is turned from solid wood and shows natural grain variation between individual pieces — the exact grain pattern, colour intensity, and mineral streak positions will vary slightly. The amber glass shade is manufactured from amber-tinted glass and may show subtle variation in the amber saturation between individual production batches. What you receive will be an Ambra-family fixture with its own subtle handmade personality. If you appreciate natural materials, this is exactly what you want. For customers who require exact matching between multiple units (e.g. hospitality installations), contact support before ordering for matched-batch coordination.

Yes — the Ambra is a specified fixture for boutique-hotel guest room bedsides (matched pairs), Japandi and Nordic-styled Airbnb short-term rentals, organic modern residential projects, boutique-hospitality reception spaces, and multi-unit residential specifications where the walnut + amber material register reads as considered upscale interior specification. Matched-pair coordination available at no extra charge. Trade programs, project management for larger orders, and bulk pricing for orders of 20+ units. Production lead times run 4-6 weeks.
