In this edition of “This one or that one” I bring you two lovely white lacquered floor lamps.
I first spotted West Elm’s Turned Floor Lamp last year when we were looking at sectionals for our family room and again when we purchased our formal living room furniture. I can’t, and probably never will be able to, justify spending $350 on a floor lamp, but I admit. We considered it. For two seconds. And then we both came back to reality.
So when I found Target’s Threshold Lacquered white floor lamp, I bought it right away. We needed more lamps in our family room and this fit the room and my budget. While it’s a little more traditional than the West Elm version and it’s not quite as wide and chunky (which is something I love about the West Elm version), it is generally a very similar look. Plus it was on sale that week for an additional 20% off. You can’t beat that!

Threshold Lacquered Floor Lamp ($70) Target
I think I’m overdue for posting a few home updates, so will try to photograph our family room with the lovely lamp soon. Have a beautiful week!
Too funny, we need floor lamps in our new house and the white Target one you have posted is one of the ones I was considering. I always vote cheap!
We love it! I highly recommend it. Has two bulbs and is a 3-way, I believe, so offers a lot of light options. LOVE IT! Just wait until they do a Threshold 20% off sale again. :)
Glad you didn’t buy the $300+ one! That is crazy (in my book, anyway)! The lamp would have to perform some other awesome function, like babysitting my children, toasting bread, or providing entertainment for me to spend that much. =) Love the them both, though!
Ha! Yeah, no kidding. It was never a real consideration, but more of a dream. I honestly think the Target one is even more similar to it in person as it’s very white etc… and obviously, I got it for $56 instead of $70, so a pretty good deal for a great lamp. I agree-a lamp that babysat children could be pretty fantastic!
