Some people start thinking about Christmas presents at the end of summer, while others have made last-minute shopping a way of life: gifting a table lamp by Creative-Cables is an excellent solution in both cases. Because they’re designer, customisable, and perfect for any setting.
Why give a lamp as a gift?
Beyond the object itself, it has a strong symbolic value: giving light means choosing positivity, hope, wishing for a bright future. For this reason, lamps and light bulbs are often chosen as wedding or christening gifts. However, choosing a Creative-Cables product means giving a bespoke item, created especially for the recipient, as every single component can be selected to create a unique lamp. Is your uncle a football fanatic? Then for his Christmas present, a lamp in black and white (or black and blue, or red and black...) tones is perfect. Does your new flatmate love pink? Thanks to the configurator, you can create a pastel lamp or one in vibrant fuchsia tones for her.

2. Taché, the starring paperclip
Perfect on a desk, bedside table or any small piece of furniture in the home, Cubetto is the most customisable Christmas gift you can find. Made in Italy from natural or painted wood, it comes in a range of hues from blue to red, and can be made with any cable (including furry ones) and paired with a multitude of light bulbs.
A quirky Christmas gift for design enthusiasts, Taché is the table lamp with the original light bulb holder designed by Fabrizio Alessio, drawing inspiration from one of the most beloved objects in the world of design: the paperclip, patented by William Middlebrook in 1899, which inspires its simplicity and elegance.
Just as the paperclip holds sheets together, the lightweight structure of Taché can clip a G125 light bulb, leaving it suspended and on display. We offer it in three versions:
- Wood Lamp, with natural wood lamp holder
- Metal Lamp, cylindrical metal body
- Elegant Lamp, with the knurled aluminium lampholder.
All of them, of course, are fully customisable.

3. Customise your Table Flex
Thanks to the flexible arm, a full 60 cm long, which can be shaped by twisting it with your hands, Table Flex is the table lamp from the Flex system that changes shape not only depending on the components you choose (always a wide range), but also on how and how much you twist it. Among Christmas gifts, it’s the ideal choice for those looking for something to customise 100%.

4. GU1d-one: we made it without a base
Dedicated to those who love adjustable lamps, GU1d-one is the flexible light whose extension stretches out to form a base, complete with a mini LED spotlight.
Perfect for those seeking direct light for their desk or bedside table, with style and personality. Available in a wide range of colours, from metallics to pastels.
5. Alzaluce...
Lampshade or no lampshade? That’s the dilemma for those who fall in love with Alzaluce, one of the most delightful Christmas gifts to give yourself or someone you care about. The key feature of this table lamp by Creative-Cables is the ability to choose not only the colour, but also the height of the extension tube from the six available options (5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 cm).

6. …or Posaluce?
In metal or wood, the Posaluce always proves to be a winning Christmas gift. For those looking for a table lamp with neutral lines that fits into any setting, this product, just 12 cm wide and 8.5 cm high, can be paired with a light bulb with a strong personality or purchased together with a double-sided mini-ufo from the “Palle da lettura” collection, which playfully references the most common lies told by book lovers, illustrated in the unmistakable style of Le Palle.it.
7. Raise your glass – or rather, the Cup!
For those looking for a ceramic table lamp with a classic yet distinctive lampshade, elegant but not ostentatious, and above all easy to match with any style, we have dedicated this Coppa, from the Materia collection. Available in various finishes, it can take pride of place on any desk or hallway table, but also serves as a bedside lamp. The craftsmanship? Handmade and made in Italy.

8. A vase with a thousand faces
Three little feet, a ceramic body with a coral effect, or cement, or lawn green, and a lampshade in raffia, jute or linen. So many possibilities, one single product: the Vaso ceramic table lamp from the Materia collection which, thanks to its timeless style and customisation options, could be the perfect Christmas gift to please even the most diverse personalities.

9. There’s bottle and Bottiglia
Slender and proud: these are the characteristics of the latest (though by no means least) lamp in the Materia collection. Bottiglia combines the charm of artisan craftsmanship with the understated elegance of a customisable product, featuring lines that suit any setting, from brocante to industrial. One of the most delightful Christmas gifts.
10. Truly Magnetic Appeal
It’s dedicated to those who love fridge magnets—and want to go all out at Christmas—the Magnetico®-Plug lamp holder, which can stick to any ferrous surface. Available in various colours, it can be an original bedside lamp for a wrought iron bunk bed or a desk lamp with a look that’s as vintage as it is industrial. And if the surface you want to place it on isn’t iron, no problem—we’ve thought of a special base for that too.
