Every 'Quiet Luxury' Devotee I Know Is Buying This Beautiful Bouclé Lamp From H&M Home

Bouclé can be somewhat of a contentious fabric these days... but on a table lamp? Now that's a bright idea I can't overlook

Unless you've been living under a rock, it's likely you've seen, and lusted after, the numerous bouclé-clad designs that have dominated every interior-fanatic's social feeds for the last few years. But as pretty as it may be, for most of us, the fuzzy fabric simply isn't a practical choice for furniture — and then of course, there's the camp of people that think it's been 'done to death' by now.

But just when I think it's time to move on from the bouclé, I always tend to come across a piece that makes me reconsider my choices. Most recently, it was this Bouclé-Weave Table Lamp from H&M Home (that looks way more expensive than its $69.99 price tag, if you ask me).

Yes, while you may quickly regret committing to a cream-colored sofa, buying a bouclé décor piece or two never hurt anyone. Plus, this application of the intricately threaded fabric feels like a fresh take, and not what we've come to expect of of the interior design trend.

Sleek, minimalist and elegant, I could easily see this H&M table lamp styled in a wide variety of aesthetics, though I think it would look particularly at home paired with a neutral-toned room, where all the emphasis is placed on materials and textures.

Bouclé has cemented itself within the fabric world as the epitome of chic — channeling French design houses, Coco Chanel in the 50s, and mid-century modern design, where the material was a mainstay for interior designers like Vladimir Kagan. As such, it is typically sold with a steep price tag attached, which makes finding pieces like this lamp all the most special.

But if you've been asking yourself whether bouclé sofas are still in style, I'd say — who cares? Go with what you love, and if you think bouclé is beautiful, then continue to shop and style it in your home this year (and beyond!) Whether it's this lamp from H&M Home, or the bouclé accent chair and décor I've shared below, there's plenty to love about the elegant texture.

And if all of that is not enough to convince you that bouclé is here to stay, take a look at this ultra-luxe Bouclé Lounge Chair from H&M Home that our shopping editor, Julia Demer, just discovered...
