That item has been discontinued, but here are similar options.
A black floor lamp adds light to a corner without adding another color. By day a matte black frame is a thin vertical line. At night it nearly vanishes and leaves a pool of warm light where the room needed it.
Every lamp here comes from our modern floor lamps and carries a black frame: slim reading lamps, tripods, frosted globe designs, shaded columns, and a few with antique brass or walnut details. The same low, warm light runs through our wider range of luxury light fixtures, in place of a bright overhead.
Choosing a black floor lamp by what it lights
Decide what the corner is for before you choose a shape. A reading chair wants light that reaches the page. A living room wants a soft glow that lifts the walls. One lamp rarely does both well.
A matte black floor lamp for reading
Look for a shade or an adjustable head, and set the bottom of the shade at about shoulder height when you are seated. The light should land on the book, not in your eyes. A slim black stem keeps the lamp from crowding the chair.
Modern black floor lamps for ambient light
Frosted glass globes spread light around the room, and upward-facing shades throw it onto the ceiling. Either can make a living room feel larger after dark. Put one in the darkest corner and the room stops ending at the edge of the sofa.
How tall a black floor lamp should be
Floor lamps commonly run between about 58 and 70 inches. Judge the height from where you sit, not where you stand, because a lamp that looks right in the doorway can shine straight into your eyes from the sofa. If the bulb shows from your main seat, choose a taller lamp or a deeper shade.
Where black works and where it fights
Against light walls the black outline becomes part of the design. Against dark paint it recedes and you see only the glow. Neither is wrong, but decide which one you want before you buy, since the two give very different rooms from the same lamp.
A black floor lamp with brass or walnut
A few of these mix matte black with antique brass or dark walnut. That second material gives the lamp some warmth up close and ties it to wood furniture and brass hardware elsewhere in the room.
Pairing a black floor lamp with a black chandelier
If the room has a black frame somewhere above eye level, a matching floor lamp makes the choice look intentional. A black chandelier over the dining or living area and a black floor lamp in the corner give the room two points of the same line at different heights.
Switch the overhead off
Once the lamp is in place, switch the ceiling light off for an evening and see how the room feels. A black floor lamp with a warm bulb and one table lamp can be enough for a living room after dark.
