Our Stylist Says
I really like the Serious Readers Alex lamp because of its sleek, minimalist design that adds a touch of modernity without overpowering a space. It works particularly well in contemporary or industrial-inspired interiors, where its black finish complements other dark accents and metals. For styling tips, place it on a side table or a desk to create a functional yet stylish corner - it's ideal for reading nooks or home offices. To keep the look cohesive, pair it with monochrome or neutral tones, and consider adding a textured lampshade or a contrasting accessory for visual interest. This lamp's simple silhouette makes it versatile, but it truly shines when used as an understated statement piece in a clean-lined setting.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
