Desk and table lamps are commonly confused to be the same, however there is a small difference between the two in terms of functionality. Table lamps are seem more as a decorative item and are usually used for armchair reading. They are used basically to add light to a room. Certain decorative lamps such as Tiffany’s can fit well as a decorative piece by the day. Desk lamps, on the other hand are intended for a definite function like providing light for specific tasks such typing, reading or computer works.

Study lamps and desk lamps are analogous in that both can be connected to shelf or fitted to any other furniture nearby. These lamps usually comes with a clamp or clasp like fitting to hold on to shelves or furniture.

 Clamp-on desk lights tends to occupy very little space, however they have a trouble snuggling well into only a limited number of spaces. Most desk lamps come with a adjustable neck which allows them to be twisted and bend to focus onto a specific area which is comfortable to the user. Desk lamps are usually more of functional looking and are quite sober to look at, besides these don’t allow the convenience of a great choice of hues.
