High-quality lighting plays a vital role in needlework, cross-stitch, knitting, embroidery, quilting, crocheting and all fine-detail crafts. Precise illumination enhances accuracy, reduces eye strain, and makes crafting more enjoyable. Without it, hobbyists may struggle with color matching, miss stitches, or suffer fatigue after short sessions.

It arrives fully assembled and includes a remote-control. The sleek, flat base slides under furniture, and the optional battery pack provides ~3 hours of cordless use. MSRP is $472.
Why It’s Ideal for Needlework
The Bright Reach® floor lamp is exceptional for needlework, crocheting, quilting, and other crafting tasks.
Key benefits include:
• Glare control & adjustable hinges: direct light precisely with a swivel head that minimizes shadows.
• Color temperature control (3 modes, up to ~5000 K): match daylight to accurately distinguish thread/fabric tones.
• High CRI 85+: ensures color accuracy so you can identify subtle hue differences.
• Flicker-free LED: constant light output eases long crafting sessions.
Technical Deep-Dive
- Lux vs. lumens: lux measures light intensity on the work surface (10,000 lux at 11″ ensures crisp visibility); lumens describe total light output.
- CRI 85+: values above 80 are considered good for color-critical tasks—essential for precise needlework.
- Color temperature (3000–5000 K): warm to cool light improves contrast and reduces fatigue during detailed stitching.
- Glare & flicker control: Patented hinges and a swivel head provide complete glare control, while flicker-free LEDs protect eye health.
- Positioning tips: place lamp above surface, directly overhead or slightly angled to evenly light stitches without casting operator shadows. Use the remote or onboard controls to adjust without interrupting flow. Use the patented hinges to easily move the lamp away from your work when you are ready to take a break.
