Price History
Description
Made in the UK Hand-crafted in Cornwall yet boasting Scandinavian-design influences, the Skipper floor lamp from Tom Raffield will lend an eye-catching accent to your home. Its sculpted, appealingly natural profile is crafted from solid wood, while a brass bulbholder lends a smart finishing touch. Its clean-lined tripod base highlights the beauty of natural materials, making this a timeless option for your living spaces.
Our Stylist Says
I love this floor lamp for its sculptural, natural feel, which adds a warm and tactile element to a space. Its craftsmanship and use of authentic materials suit contemporary, Scandi, or boho interiors beautifully, but it can also serve as a statement piece in more minimalist settings. Practical styling tips include pairing it with neutral-toned furniture to highlight its organic shape, or placing it beside a reading nook for functional elegance. It's versatile enough to work well in living rooms, bedrooms, or home offices, where its soft, ambient light can be appreciated without overpowering the overall aesthetic.

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.
