Lamps, and lighting in general, are so important for setting the tone in a space. I'm a lighting fanatic and it saddens me to see how often lighting is overlooked.
Buffet lamps have their very own purpose in life. They are designed to illuminate that delicious spread you've laid out without taking up too much valuable space. They also look great on console tables in your entry or a desk, or anywhere else you've placed a narrow piece of furniture. Traditionally buffet lamps are tall with narrow shades, but why limit yourself to someone else's definition of what a buffet lamp should be?
Lotus Leaf Lamp
If you know me at all then you know I love this lamp. It's gold, it's nature inspired, and the lotus leaves give it a Chinoiserie flair. These lamps would be perfect on a lacquered piece.
Restoration Hardware's Pyramid Telescoping Lamp is great looking, modern and masculine.
Regina Andrew's Concrete and Brass Table Lamp is a favorite. The mix of brass and concrete is unexpected, and it would be perfect in a modern/rustic setting.
The Arteriors Sidney Lamp is a modern take on a classic marble lamp. This lamp will stand the test of time.
This is the Doug Buffet Lamp by Chattanooga-based Stray Dog Designs. It's whimsical, nature-inspired, and a great way to relax your "formal" dining room.

Love these choices Kim, especially the first one and the thin sophisticated RH lamps. Have a great week! xo Nancy
A pair of Dougs will someday be mine! I just have to find the right house.
I so agree with you Kim, I have tall lamps with huge shades on my Dining room buffet table. Although most of the time, they just light up what's on display there and not food. ;-)
Bliss Studio makes a pretty lotus lamp.
The first gold lotus leaf lamp reminds me of the recent publication of Kathryn Ivey's home in BHG. I think she had one of those lamps in her living room. I LOVE the last lamp from stray dogs! So chic!! Thanks for sharing!
I love tall lamps, and these are stunning.
