FACET sets a cube of alabaster on a crossed black metal base, and the geometry is the whole argument. Flat faces show the stone's veining as continuous planes rather than curving away from view, so the material is legible from across a room in a way a globe never quite manages however good the stone underneath happens to be.
The crossed base lifts the shade clear of the surface, which lets light escape underneath as well as through the stone and keeps the lamp from sitting heavily on a console. Warm diffused output comes through all four faces evenly, so there is no bright side and dark side. Compact enough for a nightstand, distinctive enough that it does not need a companion piece to justify itself.
It fits easily on nightstands, consoles, side tables and desks, and it holds up in modern, transitional and eclectic rooms alike - the geometry is neutral enough to sit with most furniture rather than demanding a particular style around it. Four finish options are available. Plug-in lamp: route the cable clear of walkways and use a bulb within the rated wattage.
