Plug-in table lamp
Open Oval
Table Lamp
A black lost-wax cast brass base forms an open oval with a see-through center, set under a handmade white watercolor paper shade. Light gathers in the paper and falls softly around the base. It suits a nightstand, desk, end table, or entryway console, in a small or large size
Highlights
Open form, soft shade
A black cast-brass oval and a white paper shade, offered in two heights on the same base footprint
01
Open oval base

E26/E27 light
An E26/E27 bulb lights the shade, and a warm white bulb gives the softest glow. An inline switch on the cord turns it on and off

Lighting Size Guide
Monulo · The practical guide
Lighting that fits.
A room that feels right.
Find a starting size, see where to place it, and know what to check before installation.
Find your starting size01 · Get the scale right
A useful starting point, in seconds.
For a central ceiling light, enter your room dimensions. For lights above furniture, use the table or island guide below instead.
Measure first, then mock up the actual shape. Suggested dimensions are design starting points; product instructions and applicable local requirements take priority.
02 · Look up
Work with your ceiling.
The available drop matters as much as the fixture diameter.
Around 9–10 ft / 2.74–3.05 m
Balance the drop
Pendants become easier to accommodate. Reserve enough clearance below the lowest part of the fitting.
Above 10 ft / 3.05 m
Scale with intention
Test larger forms or longer suspension. Confirm cable length, access for maintenance and ceiling support.
Sloped ceiling? Compatibility is model-specific. Confirm the canopy, suspension angle and required drop before ordering.
Room study 01
Dining table
Let the furniture define the focal point.
- Measure
- Measure the tabletop, including its width at the widest point.
- Size & place
- For a round fixture, test a diameter around ½–⅔ of the table width. For a linear design, start with ½–⅔ of its length.
- Check
- Center on the table and check the view across it while seated.
Room study 02
Kitchen island
Plan the whole row before choosing the quantity.
- Measure
- Record counter length, width and the working area below.
- Size & place
- Try two or three paper shade outlines. Adjust their widths until adjacent edges and both island ends have breathing room.
- Check
- Mark equal centers; verify the actual gap between shades rather than using center spacing alone.
Room study 03
Room center
Use the room formula as a visual starting point.
- Measure
- Record length, width and finished ceiling height.
- Size & place
- Add length and width in feet; use that total as a starting diameter in inches. Example: 12 + 14 → 26 in / 66 cm.
- Check
- Check the furniture plan and the fixture’s visual weight. This formula does not determine brightness.
Room study 04
Hallway & entry
A consistent rhythm works better than a crowded ceiling.
- Measure
- Mark the full walking route, doors and changes in ceiling height.
- Size & place
- Divide the usable corridor into equal bays. Place each light near a bay center, leaving half a bay at each end.
- Check
- Choose the final distance from the fixture’s light output and beam spread; test the layout after dark.
Room study 05
Bathroom vanity
Put comfortable facial lighting first.
- Measure
- Record mirror dimensions, side wall space and cabinet swing.
- Size & place
- For side sconces, trial the luminous center around 65–70 in / 165–178 cm above the floor.
- Check
- Adjust to the actual user and mirror. Check for bright reflections and confirm the correct location rating.
Room study 06
Bedroom & bedside
Choose the height from where you actually sit.
- Measure
- Measure the mattress, nightstand and your seated position.
- Size & place
- Try the shade at seated eye or shoulder height so the bright source is screened and the page is lit.
- Check
- Check reach to the switch, head movement, pillows and any adjustable arm.
Room study 07
Reading & living
Light the page without exposing the source.
- Measure
- Sit in your usual chair with a book before locating the lamp.
- Size & place
- Place task lighting beside or slightly behind the shoulder. Add separate ambient lighting to soften contrast.
- Check
- Keep the base and cord out of traffic; check glare from both the chair and nearby seats.
03 · Before the tools come out
One installation checklist.
Bring the product instructions, room measurements and fixture weight to your installer.
01 / Fit
Mock up the final position
Check door swings, seated views, shade gaps and the lowest point. Include the canopy and suspension in every drop measurement.
02 / Support
Verify the mounting
Have a qualified installer confirm the box, fixing points and structural support for the complete fixture weight.
03 / Compatibility
Match the electrical details
Confirm supply voltage, lamp or LED driver, dimmer compatibility, ceiling type and location rating for the exact model.
Hardwired fixtures should be installed by a qualified electrician following the supplied instructions and local requirements. This page explains planning and placement; it does not provide wiring instructions.
04 · The last few details
Questions before you choose.
Which measurement should I use for the drop?
Measure vertically from the finished ceiling to the lowest point of the assembled fitting. Over a table or counter, measure the remaining gap from that point to the surface.
Does a larger light always mean a brighter room?
No. Diameter describes the physical size. Compare lumen output, shade opacity, beam direction and the room’s other light sources separately.
How do I choose between two or three island pendants?
Start with the shade diameter, then draw the complete row to scale. Two larger shades and three small shades can both work; use actual edge gaps and counter-end clearances to decide.
What if my ceiling is too low for the light I like?
Compare a shorter suspension or a flush alternative that the manufacturer supports. Never shorten a rigid stem or modify wiring without the appropriate product guidance.
Can any fixture go in a bathroom or on a sloped ceiling?
No. Check the exact product specification and installation position. Ask a qualified installer to confirm the required damp or wet rating and canopy compatibility.
What should I send when asking for sizing advice?
Include a room photo, ceiling height, room or furniture dimensions, the fixture link and your proposed installation location. For heavier fittings, include any available mounting information.
