I am in need of a pair of lamps for either side of my sofa. The sofa looks a lot like the one below, and I have the side table below, in white with chrome legs.

Being that the table tops aren't extremely large, The lamsp need to be tall and skinny ... something around 26" high.

I am thinking something with a little pop of color, but not too loud. There will be an olive shag underneath, the walls are tan (can't paint the rental), and an eames lounge + ottoman next to the sofa. So everything is already neutral city save for some Girard pillows.

The lamps need to be super affordable as well. I'd love something for 150 or less for the pair. I know, that's super cheap but work with me.

I'll post a few links to some I have considered in my range. Please give me some opinions and new options.

Don't crucify me here, but Target -- the bigger stores anyway -- many years back, used to have a really exhaustive home lighting section, where you could swap out bases with certain shades. The stuff really wasn't bad. It might be a thought...

Test

IKEA offers table lamp bases with interchangeable shades as well.

ah -- I hadn't noticed that was you. The second one was rather nice, by the way.

Question about table
Sorry to interrupt the thread, but where did you get the white table? My friend bought one exactly like the green one in the pic, but in white, at a second-hand store and we were trying to figure out where it came from.

The table is by the now defunct company called Pure Design. I think they were bought by Offi. They were actually sold through DWR for a few years, but I got mine at a modern furniture store in Mississippi.
