Oriel Lighting | Jess Floor Lamp 1600mm E27 240V with Poppa String Shade | Black Steel
The Oriel OL81413 is a 1600mm floor lamp on a black steel base, paired with the handmade Poppa string shade in natural brown. The OL81413 takes a single E27 globe to a maximum of 60W, runs on 240V, and operates from a foot switch on the 150cm cord. The Poppa shade measures 310mm high by 360mm wide, and the assembled lamp stands 1600mm tall at 360mm wide and 430mm deep. Oriel rates the lamp IP20 and dispatches it in two cartons.
A room illuminated only from the ceiling leaves the reading chair in the worst light in the house. Rewiring for a wall light commits the owner to an electrician, a hole in the plaster and a switch position decided before the furniture arrives. The OL81413 resolves that from an existing power point: the foot switch on the cord sits beside the chair, and the lamp relocates whenever the furniture does. The 150cm cord reaches the outlet without an extension lead crossing the floor.
For a sparky finishing a lounge or a renovator furnishing one, the OL81413 requires no electrical work: it plugs into an existing power point and needs no new point, no switch and no ceiling access. That makes it the line that fills a lighting gap after the fit-off has been signed off. Oriel dispatches the lamp in two cartons, the base in one and the Poppa shade in the other, so assembly happens in the room rather than the delivery vehicle. The black steel base carries the 1600mm column, and the natural brown string shade supplies the character.
Features
- 1600mm overall height — the OL81413 stands 1600mm tall, measuring 360mm wide and 430mm deep once assembled.
- Black steel base — Oriel lists a steel lamp base finished in black, which carries the full height of the column.
- Handmade Poppa string shade — a handmade string shade in natural brown, measuring 310mm high by 360mm wide.
- Single E27 lamp holder — takes one Edison screw globe to a maximum of 60W, so the light source is interchangeable.
- Globe supplied — Oriel packs a globe with the shade and nominates A-LED-23704227 as the recommended globe.
- Foot switch on the cord — the OL81413 switches at the lamp by foot rather than from a wall plate.

- 240V plug-in operation — runs from a standard 240V power point, with no fixed wiring and no new lighting point.
- IP20 rated — an interior rating that carries no protection against water ingress.
- Two-carton delivery — Oriel packs the shade and globe in one box and the base in a second.
- Natural brown over black — the string shade contrasts against the black steel base rather than matching it.
- 12 month replacement guarantee — Oriel lists a 12 month replacement guarantee on the OL81413.
Where to use
- Reading chairs and lounges — the OL81413 stands beside a chair at 1600mm, putting light over the shoulder rather than across the ceiling.
- Living room corners — a floor lamp fills a dark corner that the ceiling fitting never reaches.
- Bedrooms — the foot switch operates without reaching for a wall plate on the way to bed.
- Rented properties — the OL81413 plugs in and leaves with the tenant, since no wiring is altered.
- Home offices and studies — a soft ambient source alongside a task lamp at the desk.
- Hotel and accommodation fit-outs — a freestanding lamp adds a light source without a new point per room.
- Staged and display interiors — the lamp positions to suit the styling and moves for the next arrangement.
- Post-handover lighting gaps — the lamp covers a room that finished short on lighting without reopening the ceiling.
The OL81413 carries an IP20 classification, an interior rating with no protection against water ingress, so it is unsuitable for outdoor or wet-area positions. The E27 holder is rated to a maximum of 60W, so a higher-wattage globe sits outside the specification. The lamp draws from a power point and switches at the cord, so it does not operate from a wall plate on a switched lighting circuit.
