The discontinued IKEA Varv wireless-charging floor lamp is a patented design. The US design patent, USD766823S1, titled Wireless charging fixture, was awarded on September 20, 2016, to David Wahl, the Swedish industrial designer of the Varv lamp.
Below, the patent Figure 1, together with an image of the marketed product. Notice the dotted lines for the lampshade on the drawing. The broken lines indicate that this part of the design is excluded from the claimed patent protection. In other words, only the wireless charging pad and the base of the Varv floor lamp are patented.
