How do I identify my lamp maker?

How do I identify my lamp maker?
To identify your lamp maker, search your piece from top to bottom for stickers, tags or markings. You may find them inside the shade or on the socket component, neck or base. If you can find a mark, tag or sticker, try photographing it and performing a reverse image search to identify the maker. Should this approach yield no results, type a description of the markings into a search engine to begin your research. If your lamp is completely unmarked, you may wish to have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer assist you. Shop a large selection of lamps on 1stDibs.
