Description
A perfect combination of style and elegance, the Marianne table lamp is sure to bring a smooth, sophisticated feel to your interiors. The 2 light design gives a soft warm glow to the surrounding space, which helps you to unwind and relax. The curved arms reveal 2 faceted glass heads, which diffuse the light to give a soothing tone to the room. Complete with an antique brass finish, this classy piece will bring a stylish twist to any décor.
Our Stylist Says
I love this little lamp for adding a touch of elegance to both classic and contemporary interiors. Its antique brass finish makes it versatile, pairing well with neutral palettes or more opulent fabrics. It's perfect on bedside tables, desks, or sideboards to create a warm, inviting glow. When styling, consider placing it alongside other brass or glass accessories for a cohesive look, or use it as a standalone statement piece for a more minimalist aesthetic. Practical tips include keeping the surrounding surface uncluttered to really let its delicate curves and crystal accents shine, and opting for a warm bulb to enhance its cosy, vintage charm.

About BHS.com
Historical Roots
British Home Stores, known as BHS, was founded by a group of U.S. entrepreneurs with the goal of replicating the same success that was seen by Woolworths.
Their first store was on the streets of Brixton and the brand quickly gained popularity for its diverse offerings.
Over time, their range of products expanded to encompass not just clothing and household items, but also furniture, electronics, entertainment, and even beauty products. By the 1960's, BHS already had 94 stores across the nation!
Expansion and Evolution
BHS has always been on the cutting edge of retail trends! In the 1970s and 1980s, when indoor shopping centres were gaining popularity, BHS quickly adapted. Their collaboration with Sainsbury's led to the creation of SavaCentre hypermarkets, which offered a combined retail experience of both general merchandise and groceries.
They didn't limit themselves to the UK either. By 1985, BHS opened its doors in Gibraltar, marking its international debut. Significant milestones like the merger with Habitat and Mothercare in 1986 further shaped its success.
