The Rispal Giraffe Floor Lamp.
A floor lamp inspired by the 1950s French mid-century vocabulary popularized by Jean Rispal — a slender walnut wood column rises from a U-shaped foot on slim black tripod legs, threading through an integrated mini wood console shelf on the way up to a generous oval white fabric drum shade.
A standalone reading lamp and a side surface in one — designed for the spot beside an armchair where you'd want both light and somewhere to put your book.
See it come to life.
Mid-century French, warm and useful.
A French armchair lamp with a place for your book.
The Giraffe vocabulary — slim wooden column, U-shaped foot, slender iron legs, oval shade — was developed in 1950s French mid-century interiors as a working-room lamp: enough light to read by, enough shelf to set down a coffee or a paperback. The signature touch is the row of small slot perforations along the wood column, originally a structural detail that lightened the form and gave the giraffe its lean, vertical character.
Here that vocabulary is reset for the modern home — solid walnut column (or White-finished wood) with the slotted detail intact, an integrated mini console shelf at chair-arm height, a U-shaped foot resting on slim black tripod iron legs, and a generous oval white fabric drum shade that diffuses warm even light over the seating below. Pairs effortlessly with mid-century modern, retro futurism, modern eclectic, transitional, contemporary classical, and warm-eclectic interiors.
Inspired by the iconic Giraffe-form floor lamp vocabulary popularized by mid-20th-century French designers — independently designed and manufactured by Dekorfine in the spirit of that tradition.
A note about the cable.
The cable cannot sit fully flush against the wood column.
In our marketing photos, the cable is styled to appear nearly invisible against the wood column. In actual use, the cable runs alongside the column with a slight visible gap — it cannot be tightly hidden flush to the wood as the photo suggests. The cable still routes neatly down the back of the column with cable management clips, but expect to see it from certain angles. This is a property of the construction, not a defect.

Quick questions.
Will the cable look exactly like the photos?
No — please set realistic expectations on this. In our marketing images, the cable is styled to appear nearly invisible against the wood column. The actual product runs the cable alongside the wood with a small visible gap — it cannot be tightly compressed flush against the wood as the photo suggests.
The cable is still routed neatly down the back of the column with cable-management clips, and from many angles is barely noticeable, but it will be visible from some angles. This is a property of how the lamp is constructed, not a defect.
What is the heritage behind this lamp?
The Rispal Giraffe Floor Lamp is inspired by the Giraffe-form floor lamp vocabulary popularized by mid-20th-century French designers — the slim slotted wood column, U-shaped foot, integrated mini console, and oval fabric drum shade all reference that tradition. Independently designed and manufactured by Dekorfine in the spirit of that vocabulary, with our own production methods.
Where does it work best?
The Rispal is designed as a beside-the-armchair lamp — the integrated console shelf sits at chair-arm height, perfect for setting down a book, mug, glass of wine, or remote control. Best placements:
Beside a reading chair · at one end of a sofa · in a study or library corner · beside a daybed in a guest room. At H 168 cm, the shade sits at standing-shoulder height when you walk past, casting warm diffused light downward over the seating below.
How is it controlled — and is it dimmable?
Foot-switch on/off located on the cord — toe-tap to turn on or off. The lamp ships with a 150 cm / 59″ cord and switch plug ready for a standard outlet (no electrician needed).
The lamp itself is not dimmable. For ambiance variation, use a dimmable smart bulb (E26/E27, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth) and adjust brightness via phone app or voice assistant.
What can I put on the integrated console shelf?
The console is sized for everyday lightweight items — a paperback book or two, a coffee mug, a wine glass, a phone, a pair of reading glasses, the TV remote. It's not a full side-table replacement; treat it as a "what I'm currently using" surface, not a permanent display platform.
The shelf is solid wood and easy to wipe down — but use coasters under wet glasses to protect the wood finish over time.
