David Hunt Lighting Hopper Table Lamp

The David Hunt Lighting Hopper Table Lamp is a sculptural table lamp that pairs a decorative bronze resin base with antique brass metalwork. The design combines a detailed hare figurine atop a stack of book-shaped volumes with a rounded rectangular silk shade shown separate to demonstrate its intended aesthetic.

Formally the Hopper is conceived as a decorative object and working light. The stacked book base and seated hare create a considered focal point while the slender, offset antique brass stem keeps the figurine visually central. The lamp is shown with an optional rounded rectangular Zoffany silk shade, sold separately.

Construction blends a dark bronze resin finish for the sculptural base with finely modelled surface texture and antiqued highlights. The supporting metalwork is finished in antique brass. The shown shade is a taupe 100% silk dupion option with a warm bronze laminate inner; fabric swatches are available on request.

Light is delivered through the horizontal stadium-style shade to give broad, even diffusion suitable for ambient or light task use. The wide, tiered book base provides stability, while the offset stem preserves the sculptural presence of the hare without interrupting the light output.

The Hopper is supplied as a base-only product; the Zoffany silk shade and lamp are sold separately. The fitting takes one Golf Ball style bulb (B22 bayonet, 60W max) and David Hunt recommend an LED Golf Ball size lamp. Bulb not included. The product carries a one year warranty and is accompanied by clear specification notes for project use.

At Lighting Design Online we frame the Hopper as a design-led choice for interiors that need an object with both presence and practical light. We provide clear guidance on shade, bulb and specification so you can specify with confidence and achieve a considered, long-lasting result grounded in good craft and British manufacture.
