Dunelm's Ottelie the Otter Resin Table Lamp, priced at £25, has caught the attention of homeware fans with its quirky design. The lamp features a sweet otter carrying a lightbulb, offering a distinctive addition to any room.
Design and dimensions
The lamp measures H 12.5cm x W 34cm x D 13cm and comes with a 200cm long cable. It is suited for decorating sideboards or bookshelves, adding personality to a space. When lit, it provides warmth and fun to darker evenings, but even unlit, it serves as a talking point. Shoppers should note the globe bulb is sold separately.
Shopper reviews
Customers have praised the lamp on Dunelm's website. One said: "Beautiful lamp, I can't stop looking at it and it's so adorable!" Another noted: "Very cute lamp, perfect size for my desk! Good quality." A third shopper described it as "so, so cute," adding: "Lovely and different. Well made, well worth the money and so cute."
However, some critical reviews centered on the bulb. One shopper, who bought the lamp as a gift, wrote: "Arrived safely and I know she will love it! One problem - lamp is supposed to be dimmable but I can't find where you press/touch it to dim the bulb. The dimmable bulb is the one recommended for this product. Am I missing something?"
Another commented: "Cool animal lamp, nice and heavy, and the paint job isn't bad. Only let down was Dunelm recommending a Lois dimmable bulb which just about fit but really needs to be a touch smaller."
Alternatives from other retailers
For a different take on the animal lamp trend, shoppers might consider the Bronze Hamish Table Lamp from Next, priced at £40, which features a bronze-effect mini statue of a Highland cow with a neutral fabric shade. Alternatively, B&Q offers the Urban Frenchie Holding Bulb Table Lamp for £48.99, centered on a resin statue of a French bulldog holding a bulb in its mouth.
