Farol Paper Lantern Tripod Floor Lamp
The owner's take on the Farol
Farol is a paper lantern floor lamp: a pleated mulberry-paper shade in a soft rounded shape, held up by a thin black metal tripod, with a wire loop handle and a wood ring at the top. Lit, the whole shade glows an even warm white, more like a paper moon in the corner than a directed lamp. It stands about 119 cm. It is a plug-in lamp with an 8 ft cord and a foot switch, and it comes with an E26 LED bulb rated 8 W at a warm 3000K.
Where it is not the right tool: the paper shade is delicate, so assembly takes care and it is not a lamp for a house with rough hands or big dogs. The light is ambient and soft, not reading-bright, and it is mains-powered so it lives by a power point.
Why you will love the Farol
- Paper-lantern glow. The whole pleated shade lights up evenly, warm and diffuse, with no hotspot.
- Thin black tripod. Takes up almost no visual space, so the shade seems to float.
- Wood ring and wire handle. The details that make the shape read as considered rather than plain.
- Foot switch. On and off without bending down to the wall.
- Bulb included. A warm 3000K LED in the box, ready to plug in.
Why choose a paper lantern floor lamp
The pleated paper lantern on a tripod is a shape that keeps coming back because it does one thing well: a large, soft, warm light that fills a corner without glare. Farol is the plug-in version for a fixed spot beside a sofa or in a reading nook. Backed by our 60-day guarantee.

Is the Farol cordless?
No. It is a plug-in floor lamp with a foot switch and a mains cord. For a floor lamp with no cord, look at the cordless Arco or Faro.
Is it hard to put together?
It takes patience. The paper shade is fragile and has to be handled gently while you fit it to the frame, so give yourself time and a clear table. Once it is up it needs no more attention.
