The Common Lamp Base is a series of versatile and refined lamp bases which can be used as part of a simple, elegant lighting solution. Featuring a convenient flat-packed design comprising a slim stem and round base, the uncluttered aesthetics make it easy to integrate into a wide range of private and public spaces. The stem is made of steel, with the base crafted in steel or terrazzo, with both materials available in different colour options.

The bases are available for use as a table lamp and floor lamp, both variants featuring a standard E27 bulb fitting suitable for most standard lamp shades. HAY recommends using it with the Common Rice Paper Shade for a soft glow that adds warmth and atmosphere to any space in the home.
