Technorati Tags: Antique Floor Lamps for Sale

One of the most common home decorations today are antiques. Antique things are very common and popular among household because of their mature beauty and natural elegance that when they are place in a room, they will surely give the place the elegance and beauty it deserves. Over time, many antique things have been made available in the market, one of which is floor lamps. Antique manufacturers try to do their best to create a lamp which exactly looks like an antique so that it will be of maximum use as an antique decoration at home.

Lamps that are antique vary in their designs and forms. The so called antique ones are made with gilded bases adorned with an ornate cloth or stained glass lamp shades to make it more realistic. Antique objects are very expensive today, which is why most manufacturers just try to give floor lamps an antique like look, and basically the antique name is just simply a description of how it is made to look like. Those readily available antique lamps in the market are just reproduction or imitation of the real ones since the originals are very expensive and usually take a longer period of time to perfect its design and structure. The antique finish is just given to the objects; one of the most commonly used is the antique brass finish. Antique lamps are rarely chosen because of its light, it is more popular because of its beauty and appearance. They are said to be chosen out of beauty rather than functionality, for a vintage lamp can really bring out its own beauty and easily shine from the rest of your furniture at home. It is very much pleasing to the eye that is why more people love to have them at home. Aside form the lamp itself, its details are also very much eye catching and gives viewers happiness just by looking at them. It also gives the whole place a classic and historical look, making you feel like historically somewhere else.

Antique Floor lamps should be taken extra good care, for they are sometimes the cause of many unwanted accidents such as fire. These lamps should always be kept out of the reach of those small children and pets at home to avoid such accidents to occur. But today, this is no longer a problem. One of the most common restoration techniques being administered to such products is by replacing it with an electrical working and some contemporary parts to make them safer and at the same time still very much functional and useful.

Basically any kind of furniture or home decoration can be used effectively in designing. Floor lamps are just one of the many things you can use to design and redecorate your place. Selecting your piece of antique lamp is something that you should consider very much. You have to plan out everything before actually purchasing one for your home, especially if these objects would have to cost you a lot.

Back in the day, different types of lamps were a practical household necessity. In 1910 and through to the 1940s, a very popular lamp that was very popular was the antique "bridge" lamp. This lamp is a floor lamp that is unique with its arm that sticks out from the top of the body and base. This arm is referred to as the "bridge" of the lamp. The shade is then attached at the end of the bridge over the light bulb.

The bridge lamp was made specifically for the purpose of being able to direct light EXACTLY where it is supposed to go and not necessarily to light an entire room. Back when these lamps were created, the homes of many of the people were built to have very high ceilings which caused a great light in the room from the ceiling light, but the light was distributed throughout the whole room which created shadows below it. If you were to sit in a chair to read or sit at a desk in order to do some work, the shadow of the person or anything else near the subject, would make the light very dim and not at all bright enough to help with what task was being performed.

The light of the bridge lamp could be put by a chair or a desk and positioned so that the light would aim directly on the actual work or book that was being used. It was a very popular lamp for this purpose but also the antique bridge lamp became a favorite lamp to decorate the shade. With the shade hanging down, you were able to have a lot more freedom when it came to decorating.

The lamp shades of these lamps took a life of their own and there are so many different designs that have made their mark on this lamp. The most popular design is the tassels and beaded material that the show girls used to wear in the 1940s. They found that these tassels and the beaded fabric made the lamp stand out among anything else in a room. The way the tassels dangled below the shade with the light shining through them created a rather happy feeling to the people who were near them. The people could not help but touch the lamp and play with the hanging tassels on it!

This type of lamp design also allowed its owner to adjust the height of the stand and adjust the brightness of the light by having a three or four turn knob instead of the regular on and off switch. The antique bridge lamp is still a very popular lamp in today's world as well.

Having an antique floor lamp with a table is a great idea to brighten up and add an extra something to just about any space. There are however some different things that you will want to take into account before you go out and make the actual purchase. This article will help you to decide what you need to do before you can bring that lamp home and make it part of your space.

You will first need to consider when your antique floor lamp with table is going to go. This can be a rather difficult task, especially if you are short on space, however with some quick rearranging with furniture you can find that place that will be perfect for it. You'll want to make sure that wherever you put it there is still plenty of space and the room isn't becoming crowded. The great thing about floor lamps is that they will brighten up your entire room, just just sections of it like with multiple table lamps.

Lighting is another issue. You'll also want to decide how much light you want in your room. Some people like it more dimly lit while others enjoy a very bright atmosphere. You can of course go down to your local hardware store and buy some light bulbs that will give you the power and light that you want. If the room you place the lamp with table in is somewhere that you do a lot of reading or writing in, then you might want to consider making it brighter. If it is somewhere that you are just relaxing in or even watching tv, you may want it to be dimly lit so accent the mood of the entire room.

Wherever you decide to place your antique lamp with table, you'll want to make sure that it goes along with the rest of the room to make it flow well with the other furniture pieces that you already have. It doesn't have to be identical to everything else in the room, but it should be in following with the general theme or style of everything else. This way your room with take on a flow that will make you more comfortable and at ease. Before you make your purchase, you should look at as many different places as you can. Go to antique shops and other stores that sell antique furniture as well as the internet. The web can be a great place to find that antique floor lamp with table that you have always wanted.

I have an antique floor lamp?

i'm trying to figure out if it originally had a glass or fabric shade. and also, what the name of the piece where the shade would fit is called.
the piece is bell shaped with a pull chain socket. it has no small screws like you would see with a small glass shade to hold it on,such as on a ceiling fan. there is actually nothing that would affix the shade to the bell that i can tell. any ideas? i don't know how to put a picture up in order for you to view it or i would do that

First let us define ANTIQUE FLOOR LAMP. Of course a floor lamp normally rests upon the floor as opposed to resting upon a table, the wall or the ceiling. The general definition of an ANTIQUE means something from a bygone era. This places the term outside the legal arena and into common usage. "Era" is general perceived and is defined as a long indefinite time period which also works out perfectly for this general definition. This general definition works perfectly since any identification of an "Antique Floor Lamp" is fairly useless without some time period designation normally in the form of circa 1905 which literally means "about the year 1905". So I will use the term ANTIQUE FLOOR LAMP on this basis and often substitute it with the term VINTAGE FLOOR LAMP. This discussion does not address modern reproductions of antique lamps which is another subject to itself.

More and more people are learning to appreciate the quality and styling of antique floor lamps especially as most of the ones being produced today are molded plastic and literally made to be thrown away. Most all floor lamp makers from the turn of the century made their lamps from heavy metals such as cast iron, brass, steel and cast zinc sometimes combined with marble, onyx, glass and stone. Our lamp shop regularly restores these antique floor lamps for resale as well as for our customers' own use. From our 30 years of experience it is clear that many of these antique floor lamps will last for hundreds of years. The electrical components, the fabric shades and the painted finishes often need restoration but most were made with such fine quality, that they are a much better value than brand new high end lamps that sell for many hundreds of dollars. You will find some other surprises about these collectible works of art below.

High quality, beauty and function were powerful influences on the makers of antique floor lamps. Many people are aware of their outstanding quality and beauty but completely surprised about the highly developed functional and technical characteristics. There are far too many examples to list here but I will mention a couple of the more important ones.

The brightest lamp that you can purchase today in any store was designed and made circa 1920. It is also the most versatile lamp that you can buy anywhere. Further it will outlast most any modern lamp that you can find at any price. This antique floor lamp is known by a numerous names such as: 6 Way Floor Lamp, Reflector Floor Lamp, and "JUNIOR". The design begins with a heavy metal base sometimes highly decorated with an upright tubing leading up to a central electrical socket surrounded by 3 arm lights (4 lights total). The central light takes a 3 way bulb (low-medium-high) that is often a MOGUL size which is larger than a standard socket with higher wattage (100-200-300 watts). The three arm lights are controlled by a switch that can turn on separately just 1, 2 or all 3 of the arm lights. Further, many of these JUNIORS had a small light under the base which provided a very subtle night time floor light operated by a foot switch mounted on the side of the base. As if this were not enough, the central top socket is encased in a large metal cup which holds a white waffle patterned glass bowl that reflects light upward to bounce of the ceiling. A fabric or silk shade (also called JUNIOR shade) rests upon the glass reflector bowl to reflect light downward for reading. A single arm light can provide a simple night light or at it brightest setting, it can light up an entire room. There is no brighter lamp or more versatile lamp available anywhere today and it was designed and made nearly 100 years ago!

One of the best reading lamps in the world was also designed circa 1920. It has been highly imitated but it still remains unchallenged. The Bridge Arm Floor Lamp or Bridge Lamp has a typical floor lamp design with metal base and upright standard which can take the form of various types of decorated tubing, twisted iron rods, etc. At the top of the standard is a decorative cast metal arm with a graceful arc or curvature which ends with an electrical socket pointing downward and covered by a fabric or glass shade. This has the effect of offsetting the light by about 14-18" from the upright standard at the same time lowering it so that it is closer to the reading material or work project. The result is an excellent reading lamp or work lamp which places the light bulb very near the task at hand. Many of these Bridge Arm Floor Lamps have convenient pull chains which hang below the bottom of the lamp shade for ease of operation.

Of course there are many other kinds of antique floor lamps such as torchiere, two light, curved arm, swing arm, etc. Even the oldest and most dilapidated of these well built heirlooms can be brought back to life with some scrubbing, sanding, painting, rewiring and sometimes soldering or welding.

If you want to buy a lamp that you can give to your grand kids, consider buying an antique floor lamp.

Antiques are sought for their mature beauty and the elegance they bring to a room. The antique trend that exists in the world of home design has even influenced floor lamps. Manufacturers create designs to mimic the sometimes flowery or ornate styles of antique furniture to provide fixtures to match the various types of antique home décor.

Many of these so-called antique lamps have a gilded base and ornate cloth or stained-glass lampshades. Sometimes, the word “antique” is used simply to describe a hue in the finish. Antique brass is a popular finish in floor lamps. In truth, these are simply reproduction lamps. True antique floor lamps are much harder to find and are substantially more expensive, depending on their history and design. In fact, some French antique lamps sell at auctions for thousands of dollars.

A popular antique floor lamp restoration technique is to replace the electrical workings with contemporary parts to make these lamps safer and more functional. Converting a vintage floor lamp into a halogen or a compressed fluorescent floor lamp combines the benefits of modern lighting technology with the beauty of antique design.

Antique floor lamps are rarely chosen for their light – they really are more aesthetic than functional. A vintage floor lamp pleases the eye and accentuates much of the furniture around it. Brass trim in a floor lamp’s base can call attention to the brass handles of a nearby chest. The carved wood of a maple floor lamp adds to a room’s warm tones and blends in with the rest of the dark wood furniture.

A piece of furniture can be effectively used in design, and floor lamps are no different. Selecting an antique or a reproduction floor lamp has the potential to bring the style in a room together. Choose these lamps if you have lots of brass detailing or a consistent theme of dark wood and warm fabric tones in your furniture.
