Many people may be afraid to use black lamps in their home because black appears to be the opposite of what a lamp should be: bright and light. However, a black and gold lamp is a combination that exudes sophisticated glamor. You may be surprised to learn that a black and gold floor lamp is the perfect complement to lighter colored sofas or armchairs.
The striking elegance of black and gold is a combination that actually balances out white, gray or beige furniture. For those who want to dip their toes in first before fully committing, a black and gold table lamp is a smaller fixture that makes the same statement in a subtler way. Choosing a white shade for a black gold lamp will also help lighten the overall look. Trust us when we say it is worth trying a black and gold lamp for amped up — yet still sophisticated — glamor.
