Counterbalance Lamps For Sale on 1stDibs
At 1stDibs, there are several options of counterbalance lamps available for sale. The range of distinct counterbalance lamps — often made from metal, brass and aluminum — can elevate any home. We have 59 antique and vintage counterbalance lamps in-stock, while there are 7 modern editions to choose from as well. Counterbalance lamps have been made for many years, and versions that date back to the 18th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 21st Century. Counterbalance lamps are generally popular furniture pieces, but Mid-Century Modern, Industrial and Art Deco styles are often sought at 1stDibs. Many counterbalance lamps are appealing in their simplicity, but J.J.M. Hoogervorst, Florian Schulz and Paavo Tynell produced popular counterbalance lamps that are worth a look.
How Much are Counterbalance Lamps?
Counterbalance lamps can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $2,924, while the lowest priced sells for $807 and the highest can go for as much as $55,000.
Finding the Right Lighting for You
The right table lamp, outwardly sculptural chandelier or understated wall pendant can work wonders for your home. While we’re indebted to thinkers like Thomas Edison for critically important advancements in lighting and electricity, we’re still finding new ways to customize illumination to fit our personal spaces all these years later. A wide range of antique and vintage lighting can be found on 1stDibs.
Today, lighting designers like the self-taught Bec Brittain have used the flexible structure of LEDs to craft glamorous solutions by working with what is typically considered a harsh lighting source. By integrating glass and mirrors, reflection can be used to soften the glow from LEDs and warmly welcome light into any space.
Although contemporary innovators continue to impress, some of the classics can’t be beat.
Just as gazing at the stars allows you to glimpse the universe’s past, vintage chandeliers like those designed by Gino Sarfatti and J. & L. Lobmeyr, for example, put on a similarly stunning show, each with a rich story to tell.
As dazzling as it is, the Arco lamp, on the other hand, prioritizes functionality — it’s wholly mobile, no drilling required. Designed in 1962 by architect-product designers Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, the piece takes the traditional form of a streetlamp and creates an elegant, arching floor fixture for at-home use.
There is no shortage of modernist lighting similarly prized by collectors and casual enthusiasts alike — there are Art Deco table lamps created in a universally appreciated style, the Tripod floor lamp by T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, Greta Magnusson Grossman's sleek and minimalist Grasshopper lamps and, of course, the wealth of mid-century experimental lighting that emerged from Italian artisans at Arredoluce, FLOS and many more are hallmarks in illumination innovation.
With decades of design evolution behind it, home lighting is no longer just practical. Crystalline shaping by designers like Gabriel Scott turns every lighting apparatus into a luxury accessory. A new installation doesn’t merely showcase a space; carefully chosen ceiling lights, table lamps and floor lamps can create a mood, spotlight a favorite piece or highlight your unique personality.
The sparkle that your space has been missing is waiting for you amid the growing collection of antique, vintage and contemporary lighting for sale on 1stDibs.
