White on white, done properly. The base is textured glazed ceramic rather than flat white, and the shade is off white linen rather than bright white, so the two tones sit against each other instead of blending into one shapeless mass. That contrast is what stops it looking cheap.
At 510mm tall on a 270mm base it has enough height to light a book properly from a bedside table, and the tapered shade opens out to 270mm at the bottom to spread that light rather than concentrating it. The clean lines suit modern rooms; the soft off white linen pulls it towards Hamptons if that is the direction you are going.
Because it is essentially neutral it is one of the safer choices in a room where the wall colour or bedding might change later. The switch is in line on the cord and easy to reach from bed. It takes one E27 globe up to 42W, not included, so the colour temperature is yours to choose.
