I can’t say whether I like the grey and white chrysanthemum print or the long, lean silhouette of this plug-in lamp better, but I suppose it doesn’t matter, since really I don’t have to choose just one! In fact, I also adore the gold-hued background, and the silver and wood trim, too!

If you prefer a retro outdoorsy look, then perhaps this is the lamp for you, designed to look like a classic little Coleman kerosene lamp. This one’s made of neutral ceramic, lit from within by a tiny bulb in the base. It measures almost a foot high, and takes a 40 watt “B” bulb or lower.
