How tall are boho table lamps?

This can be a tricky question because it really depends on what you’re looking for and the sizing of your other home decor. However, the rule of thumb is that table lamps should be between 58″ and 64″. Or, find one that is approximately 30″ tall from the bottom of the base to the top of the lamp shade.

What material are these lamps made of?

If you’re familiar with the boho style – then you know there is no one material that is most commonly used. Rather, these lamps are going to feature a plethora of eclectic materials that will make your home decor stand out! Boho lighting is influenced by cultures and design techniques from around the globe. And that is what makes it oh-so-special! Let’s go over some of the more common materials you’ll see in these table lamp sets.

Firstly, you’ll see a lot of woven natural materials. This could be broadcloth, denim, cotton sateen, and so much more.

Secondly, ceramics are extremely popular for lamp bases. I love them because they’re simple glam but don’t stand out too much.

Thirdly, rattan is another common option when talking about boho materials.

Fourthly, macrame is a classic and completes the boho chic look. Personally, I love the off-white macrame lamp look in an entryway.

Lastly, as the bohemian style becomes more contemporary and popular, you’ll see a lot of metal lanterns.

What is the average cost of a boho table lamp?

Obviously the cost of your lamp will depend on the quality and brand you purchase. However, usually you can find a well-designed lamp anywhere from $70-$200.

Either way, before you purchase a lamp, you want to be clear about your expectations. Do you want a lamp with a bulb included? Or maybe a specific LED bulb? What type of design – maybe a drum shade or linen shade? Or – what type of fabric shade if you don’t want either of those? Make sure to think about these factors before purchasing a lamp.
