An a ceiling light can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price 1stDibs is $2,253, while the lowest priced sells for $1 and the highest can go for as much as $700,000.
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.
Questions About A Ceiling Light
- What is a flush ceiling light?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021A flush ceiling light shines light downward and sits flush against the ceiling. Flush ceiling lights are good for areas with shorter ceilings and for keeping dust and debris away from the bulb and shade because there is no space between the ceiling and the light itself. Shop a range of antique and vintage flush ceiling lights on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 27, 2024The lights that are in the ceiling are called recessed lights. There are two main categories of these lights: can and canless. A can recessed light sits inside a metal housing, allowing you to adjust its angle and control where the light aims. Canless recessed lights lack this housing, so they provide general ambient lighting. Shop a large collection of lighting on 1stDibs.

- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021The best lighting for a kitchen ceiling is really a matter of preference. Some may opt for incandescent light, which provides a soft, warm yellowish light.

- What is a ceiling pendant?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021A ceiling pendant is a lone light fixture that hangs from the ceiling. It is usually suspended with the help of a chain, metal rod or cord. They can be used in various areas of the home, such as in a kitchen or in a bathroom.

- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021The color you paint your ceiling is totally up to you. White is the most popular color, but there are no rules when it comes to painting a ceiling. Lighter colors tend to make the space feel slightly bigger while darker ones offer a moodier and more unique feel.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Yes, you can use wallpaper on a ceiling.
- How much do ceiling tiles cost?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Ceiling tiles come in a range of sizes and materials, so their cost will likely be dependent on those factors. That said, the average cost of contemporary, mass-produced ceiling tiles is usually around $3 per tile. The price will go up if they're vintage, antique or made from a rare material.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To hang an egg chair from the ceiling, you must drill into a joist and install a hook. Then, attach a chain to the top of the chair and hang it from the hook. Having an experienced handyman tackle the job for you can help to ensure secure installation and reduce the risk of damaging your ceiling. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of egg chairs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021The lights which are used in street lights are High-Pressure Sodium Lamps (HPS). These are globally used as they produce bright light and require very little maintenance. LED lights are slowly replacing HPS lamps due to their less energy consumption. Find a wide range of antique, new and vintage lighting on 1stDibs
- What is a coach light?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021Coach lights are slender and are mostly attached to vehicle pillars. They are commonly used in the center of a limousine. Coach lights are also called opera lamps. Shop a range of antique and vintage lamps on 1stDibs.
