Lamps

Lamp

— quite an extensive category of lighting fixtures, including models that are not related to more specialized varieties — chandeliers, sconces or spots (see relevant paragraphs). However, most lamps have noticeable common features. Usually, these devices use a single light bulb (or several small LEDs), they have a flat or almost flat shade and are intended for wall or ceiling mounting (depending on the model). However, there are other design options — some models, for example, resemble small chandeliers, differing from them in more modest sizes and lower brightness, others (floor lamps) are installed on the floor on a special high stand.

Anyway, such devices are good primarily in situations where it would be unnecessary to use a chandelier, and a sconce or spot for lighting is not enough (for more details on these varieties, see the relevant paragraphs). Lamps are convenient, for example, for the main (upper) lighting in hallways, bathrooms and other auxiliary rooms, in entrances, on landings, etc. Yes, and in a large room, a set of ceiling lights can successfully replace a chandelier.
