In a world full of traditional Christmas gifts, choosing to give a lamp might seem like an odd idea. Instead, it’s a choice that can offer much more than just light.
Besides adding a touch of warmth and beauty to any space, a lamp can represent illumination toward new opportunities, inspiration for a new perspective, or the light that guides our loved ones through dark times. Beyond being a simple object, this gift can also become a symbol. Naturally beautiful and completely personalized.
Here are 10 ideas for an alternative Christmas gift by Creative-Cables.
1) Cabless, the beautiful and versatile portable lamp
A wooden lamp (painted or natural) that you can always take with you thanks to its internal battery, easily rechargeable with any USB-C cord. Also available with extension and for lampshade, it’s the perfect gift for anyone who loves design.
2) Cube with red cord
Perfect for those who start thinking about the Christmas tree as early as October (the same ones who reluctantly put it away at Easter), this table lamp is sure to amaze your best friend or favorite aunt, thanks to its unique cone-shaped light bulb and the super soft, furry cord.
3) Taché, the light born from the paper clip
An alternative and highly charming Christmas gift is the Taché lamp, inspired by one of the design world’s most beloved objects: the paperclip, whose simplicity and elegance it recreates. Available in multiple finishes and suitable for any G125 light bulb, it stands out among Christmas gifts because it can adapt to any décor style.
4) Snake EIVA, for an outdoor Christmas
For those who want to light up the walkway to their front door or show Santa the way to their balcony even under the heaviest snow, the Snake EIVA is the ideal choice. This portable outdoor lamp with 5 m fabric cord is ready for any weather thanks to its waterproof socket with IP65 protection rating. Available in several colors and styles, from pastel pop to elegant anthracite.

5) Table Flex Wood, the charm of wood
The warm, retro charm of beech wood blends with the light diffused by the ST64 light bulb. The perfect Christmas gift for those who love traditional atmospheres, as well as for fans of minimal design with a Scandinavian vibe.
6) Posaluce with Milleluci light bulb
In wood or metal, the Posaluce is one of the most beloved Christmas gifts among Creative-Cables products. Why? Because it’s a table lamp with neutral lines that fits any space and can be paired with light bulbs with different personalities. The most Christmassy one? Of course, the Milleluci.

7) Practical and pop: Snake in silicone with Switch
The portable lamps by Creative-Cables are dressed in silicone, becoming even more pop and colorful. Twelve shades are available to bring cheer and style to any room or setting. And thanks to the hidden switch built into the socket, this alternative Christmas gift can light up every corner of your home.
8) Cablò, the truly unconventional gift
Looking for an affordable, original, and eco-friendly Christmas gift? Then you want Cablò, the recycled plastic support that becomes a lampshade with just a few scraps of fabric cord. Suitable for any pendant, it’s perfect for giving a lamp a new look simply and in endless ways.
9) Looking for unique gift ideas? Absolutely!
In a camper or on the terrace? Anywhere!
YES! It’s the first battery-powered portable lamp without a battery, which turns on with a simple USB-C cord. Available in white or black, it also comes with a special box that doubles as a case.
For a truly unique gift.
10) A table full of love
A desk lamp, available in multiple finishes and complete with a Love light bulb, will satisfy both design lovers and those with a romantic, dreamy soul. To light up relaxing moments—during the holidays or not—with a touch of magic.
