Floor Lamps | Moonjars - Handmade Lighting and Home Decor

Floor lamps, also known as torchères or standard lamps, are a type of lamp that stands on the floor, often reaching up to the vertical middle of the room. The term 'torchère' originated in France, where it was used to describe a lamp with a tall stand of wood or metal. Floor lamps were first introduced as candelabras with one or more candles. Today, they are available in a wide range of styles, materials, and designs, making them a popular choice for homeowners and interior designers alike. The global floor lamp market is driven by factors such as increasing demand for energy-efficient lighting, growing urbanization, and rising disposable incomes.
