Any idea how these lamps would look on Dark Wood end tables?

I have them on dark mahogany end tables and I think they go very well. It is quite a contrast but I suppose that was what my wife was looking for when she had me order them. I wasn't surprised they came in two pieces, after all, it would be silly to ship a lamp with the shade attached. At least that was my thinking when I ordered two, one for each end table. The two extra lamps made a wonderful Christmas gift for my mother-in-law and I now know what is meant by "2-Piece".

I can't say for sure because I don't have dark wood but my opinion is that they would look fine, but I like the contrast of light against dark. I guess it would just be a personal preference.

I placed these on my darker wooden end tables in my bedroom, I think they look lovely.

The base of the lamps are more of an gold tone than ivory but the shades are more of an ivory than gold tone. Hope that helps.

You could use small flat head screws to fasten the holders, then the lights just pop into place. I did that with wooden cabinets. You Might have to pre-drill the holes. surprisingly they give off a lot of light.

Rather an interesting thought...one of which may look rather nice in a dimly lit room. The white socket tube is three inches long which gives a nice candle appearance. The black finish is "flat black" which adds to the overall look. The only thing that may be of concern to you is that the base of the bulb will be even with the top of the wall plate which will mean that the top of the bulb will be approximately two or so inches above it. Hope this helps. George

Mine are a dark brown woodgrain like aged walnut, in a dimly lit room they look black.

I personally prefer a solid wood table (1 color) so the lamp stands out.However, it's all a matter of taste, there are no rules, do what You like.

You are very right. These definitely would not look good with those bulbs. Even if you had ones that were really short and didn't stick out, the effect would be clunky. I have clear amber candle bulbs and it's a pretty glow.

Dark enough to look nice? Yes, I think so. We used them on (among other things) the legs of cherry and walnut chairs. It won't be an identical match if that's what you mean, though.

I put the industrial cages on them and they look great!ADX Metal Lamp Guard for String Lights and Lamp Holders, Industrial Wire Iron Bird Cage, 4-PackGood Luck!

these would be nice with golden oak and give a little contrast against the golden oak cabinet. I agree that shiny brass would be too shiny and would prefer these or bronze rather than shiny brass.

It's pretty dark, but I'd have no idea if it would match your other furniture. But it will come over to the dark side, Luke. :-)

Yes, but they are a thicker, sturdier plastic than I've seen on other lamps. They will probably outlast the lamp. ;)

The finish is brushed, definitely not BRIGHT. I find them attractive and just the right height as reading lamps. I own 3.

I have my lamps in spare living room on side tables and love the look. I would think they would look great in bedroom on night stands too.

They would look very nice. The base is silver and the middle is glass. I really like mine and they are on a white night stand. They stand out much more on dark wood.

I would say that they might not lay flat due to the wiring as they anoted sighed to be mounted under cabinets. Also if you do place them on to of a book case take care that other objects do not come into contact with the lamps as they do get rather hot and may cause a fire.

I don't think so. I have with a cherry solid wood table. It is an absolutely beautiful lamp though. Love it.
