The world's earliest table lamps date back to the Roman Empire around 70 AD, when small oil lamps or candles were used for lighting. These lighting fixtures are usually placed on a small table for reading, working or playing in the evening. Over time, people began to use a variety of materials to make table lamps, including metal, stone, and ceramics. By the 16th century, Europe began to use glass lampshades to protect light bulbs, which marked the beginning of the prototype of modern table lamps. In the 18th century, with the advent of the Industrial Revolution, the manufacture of table lamps became simpler and cheaper. At the same time, people began to improve the design of table lamps to meet different needs and tastes. Some artists and designers began to create table lamps as a work of art, adding various decorative elements to make table lamps not only practical, but also decorative and aesthetic value. In the 20th century, with the development of power technology, desk lamps began to achieve power supply. The appearance and function of the desk lamp are also constantly upgraded, not only to provide lighting, but also to adjust the brightness, color temperature, etc., and even through intelligent control to achieve voice or remote control operation. In addition, the application of some new materials, such as LEDs, optical fibers, crystals, etc., has also made the design of desk lamps more diverse. In China, the history of table lamps can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the literati Yashi used "bright candlesticks" as lighting tools to read and write at night. These candlesticks are usually made of copper, iron, wood, simple and practical design, and are also widely used in folk. In the Qing Dynasty, with the love of the literati Yashi and the pursuit of poetry and calligraphy and painting, the desk lamp became one of their indispensable tools. The table lamps of the Qing Dynasty were usually made of delicate rosewood or mahogany and were decorated with various patterns and texts to show the identity and cultural taste of the literati. In modern times, the design of Chinese table lamps has also undergone a lot of changes with the changes of the times. In addition to the traditional mahogany and rosewood materials, modern table lamps also use a variety of new materials, such as plastic, metal and glass. In terms of design, some designers began to integrate traditional Chinese cultural elements into the design of table lamps, such as the use of Chinese paintings, paper cuts, fans and other elements for decoration to increase cultural connotation and beauty. At the same time, with the development of LED technology, more and more Chinese desk lamps have begun to use LED lamp sources, which have the characteristics of energy saving, environmental protection and long life, and have become the new favorite of modern homes. In addition, with the development of smart homes, some desk lamps in China have also begun to have intelligent functions, which can realize remote control, color temperature adjustment and other functions through mobile phone APP or voice assistant, allowing users to enjoy a more intelligent and convenient experience. In addition, some manufacturers have also begun to integrate the concept of health into the design of desk lamps, such as the use of eye-protection LED lamp beads, breathing lamps, etc., to reduce the user's long-term use of desk lamps caused by eye fatigue and cervical fatigue and other problems. In general, table lamps as lighting equipment, from the original oil lamps and candles to modern LED table lamps, has experienced thousands of years of development. In the future, with the continuous advancement of science and technology and the change of lifestyle, it is believed that the design and function of desk lamps will continue to innovate and upgrade, bringing people a more intelligent, healthy, environmentally friendly and beautiful experience.
