Ok I need to change my vote.

I like Melfie's Pottery Barn lamp first best.
Lamp #3 second best.
Melfie's Restoration Hardware lamp third best.
Lamp #2 fouth best.
And poor lamp #1 still comes in last.

HP, bring it on. I am not exhausted yet! Rats, the little white Pottery Barn one on sale is no longer available. Still looking at your MSN selections, HP. Some VERY good sales on there!

With any luck, we will have these lamps bought tonight. BUT I will not have showered or washed my hair, LOL.

Oh yeah, the Pottery Barn one we all liked was antique brass. Just checked it again. Can't have antique brass, got to be polished brass, or the yellowish kind.

Tabby, Liked the double, LOVED the price, but it won't work. The headboard has an arc in the middle.

HP, several possibilities on the lampsontheweb page.

Cool. Juju, if you look at the second link on Pottery Barn from Weinerkins, there is one that (not sure if you like the style, though) is called a 'hi-low' lamp, which means you can lower and raise it to suit yourself. Kinda nifty idea. I'm still looking for you!

Okay, now I am thinking seriously about this one. Bigdog is concerned about the lamps being too big. This is quite small, almost unobtrusive, and the halogen puts out some good light. Plus, it can be directed away from the sleeping partner's eyes.

halogen


This Pharma wall mount halogen lamp will be a truly modern addition to your home or office. It features a dimmer switch and is available in five different finishes (Black, White, Antique Brass, Satin Steel, and Polished Brass). This 29 inch lamp has an adjustable, maximum 17 inch reach, a 24 inch cord cover, and uses a halogen 100 Watt Bulb. (Incl.)
reg. 163.99 Sale 85.99

Now that I recall, I did see some small halogen ones at the local lamp store. They were awfully expensive though. Maybe I will go back and look at them again.

Oh yikes, Tabby, how did I miss seeing that one??? That might be it!!! Gonna look more closely and go get my credit card. LOL. Hang on, folks.

Edited to add: REALLY going for my credit card now. That is almost perfect - simple, right color brass, 3 way bulb, not too big, comes with a shade, and CHEAP! Yay Tabbyking!

Edited AGAIN: They don't have the polished brass! I will think about the white. LOL.

Wow, Juju that one uses a 3 way 150 watt bulb. You will get some good light out of it! What a bargain. (it's probably out of stock )

edited to add - lol I was right!

they do have the white. the price is good enough to get it even to just have it for a while or you can spray it with a brass colored paint.
why spend hundreds if you don't have to. there is also a white lamp on the next page....i think shipping is only 4 or 5 bucks per light, too.
i did all my christmas shopping at smart bargains this year...

Tabby,

Thanks for the link to SmartBargains. I just bought a really great floor lamp on sale there for $40.00 and only $4.95 shipping!

weiner, glad you found something you needed at smart bargains. you will probably shop there again, too. that is where i bought the fiberfill "feather-alternative" bed/mattress cover for 39 bucks, down from 200. i haven't had to take medication for leg pain since october when i got it! it's like sleeping on a cloud. i got another to go on top of the motorhome mattress, since that mattress is only about 6 inches thick. what a dream!

Ok, this is just a hoot, now. Bad taste lighting link I think they should call it. But the animal lights are kind of cute. Is that yellow one a cat or Spongie?

Other than being a site offering lighting, this link has nothing to do with what you are searching for, of course!

Spy will end up with a house liked by 23 different TVCH people that picked everything out. Hey, if you have any brick work done, can we all get our names on a brick? (one name per brick of course)

Gas stove if you are able to get gas. So much nicer to cook with--and maybe you can get mystery guy X to cook for you more if you have gas....AND a gas stove.

Juju--halogen lamps have good and bad points. The light can be a bit hash if you don't have any type of diffuser. Also, the bulbs are more fragile, and more expensive. If it's brighter light you want though, you can't get much better. I'm not aware that they make sodium vapor lamps for home use. If they did, you could just get one for lighting the whole house. Doors, or course, would have to be open.
