Shop Vintage & Antique Table Lamps
Antique table lamps are the perfect additions to a home office table, reading nook, or bedside table. Lighting plays a significant role in a room’s design and illumination. Why settle for standard mass-produced lamps when you could select a well-crafted antique table lamp with intricate details and top-tier materials?
Table lamps create intimate lighting for small areas within a room. However, the right antique table lamp can complement a table in a way that makes a cohesive and exciting focal point in any room.
Though we purchase European antique lighting fixtures, our professional team thoroughly cleans them. We also ensure they are correctly wired according to U.S. electrical codes. Despite our restoration process, we maintain the authenticity of our 19th-century antique table lamps from England, France, Italy, and beyond.
Types of Antique Lamps
Antique table lamps don’t have to look dull or dowdy. Instead, table lamps have many styles and designs that make them engaging conversation starters.
For instance, France’s Art Nouveau-style antique lamps feature delicate floral embellishments and bronze hardware. Meanwhile, Art Deco lamps have tubular bodies made of brass with round shades that would look stunning on a desk. Colorful glass tulip-shaped lamp shades and German emeralite lamps can add a touch of sophistication and class to any room.
History of Antique Table Lamps
The use of table lamps extends far beyond the discovery of electricity. Before electrical wiring was commonplace, people used oil-fueled table lamps. However, our rewired 19th-century antique lamps contain modern wiring without reducing their traditional appeal, beauty, and durability.
Mass lighting fixture production during the Victorian era took away some of the classic charms of handcrafted table lamps. However, the Art Deco design from the 1920s revitalized table lamps by blending modern metals with wood in brilliant colors, gilded details, and geometric shapes.
Today, antique Art Deco table lamps and other styles like mid-century, decorative, and Art Nouveau floral lamps work well with any interior design. Whether you prefer a traditional aesthetic or like blending tradition with modern ideas, antique table lamps from Fireside Antiques can easily match your preferences.
