This simple black lamp stand nearly disappears into the decor. I have it beside my harp to light the music. It is nearly too bright for this option. The head flexes nicely and holds where I put it. Height is about shoulder height or a bit less. The base is strong and heavy. My only complaint is the light seems too bright... just personal first use perspective.  

Pros: solid stand, flexible, clear light, great with color selections
Cons: a bit too bright for me
