Fine Art Lamp For Sale on 1stDibs
Choose from an assortment of styles, material and more with respect to the fine art lamp you’re looking for at 1stDibs. Each fine art lamp for sale was constructed with extraordinary care, often using metal, glass and stone. Your living room may not be complete without a fine art lamp — find older editions for sale from the 19th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 21st Century. A fine art lamp, designed in the Art Deco, Mid-Century Modern or Art Nouveau style, is generally a popular piece of furniture. A well-made fine art lamp has long been a part of the offerings for many furniture designers and manufacturers, but those produced by Atelier Jean Perzel, Gênet et Michon and Sabino Art Glass are consistently popular.
How Much is a Fine Art Lamp?
Prices for a fine art lamp can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, they begin at $248 and can go as high as $125,000, while the average can fetch as much as $4,298.
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 Fine Art Lamp
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Fine art is a category of art comprising works with purely aesthetic purpose, as opposed to applied art, which serves a practical function.
- Why is it called fine art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024Why it's called fine art comes down to the word's origin. The term originates from the Old French word "fin," which means perfected or of the highest quality. The term is fitting since art is classified as "fine" due to an artist's exceptional technique, ingenuity and creativity. On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of fine art.
- Is photography fine art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Photography is considered a fine art by many, although this is controversial.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Fine art encompasses drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking and photography, among other genres.
- What is considered fine art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 13, 2024Artworks produced for their intellectual value and aesthetic appeal are generally considered fine art. Anything made to serve a functional purpose generally is not. In addition, artwork must be one of a kind or produced only in a limited quantity to be thought of as fine. Explore a large selection of fine art on 1stDibs.
- Is drawing a fine art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Yes, drawing is a fine art.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Fine art denotes work of aesthetic value but no functional purpose, whereas decorative art is both visually appealing and functional.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The difference between fine and functional art is its purpose. Functional art usually has a practical use. Ceramics, textiles and industrial design are examples of functional art. On the other hand, fine art typically exists to tell a story, convey a message or express an idea. Examples of fine art include paintings, prints and sculptures. Shop a wide variety of fine and functional art on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The difference between fine and folk art comes down primarily to function. Fine artists produce paintings, prints, sculptures and other artworks to express an idea or concept, communicate a message or tell a story. With folk art, artists are usually more interested in following cultural traditions than self-expression. Pieces of folk art often have more practical uses compared to works of fine art, such as quilts and furniture. Other examples of folk art include pottery, masks, textiles and carvings. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of fine and folk art.
- What is an Art Deco lamp?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022An Art Deco lamp is any lamp that’s made in the styles of the Art Deco movement, which was dominant in the 1920s and 1930s. On 1stDibs, you’ll find a collection of Art Deco lamps from some of the world’s top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024To identify an Art Deco lamp, first see if you can locate a maker's mark on it. Often, you can determine the maker and learn about the types of lamps it was known for by researching the maker's marks via online resources. If the maker produced lamps in the Art Deco style and your lamp dates to the 1920s or ’30s, it's a good possibility that your lamp is in the Art Deco style. Some makers who were famous for their Art Deco lamps include Lalique, Daum Frères, Tiffany and Charles Schneider. If you can't find a maker's marking, consider the overall design of your lamp. Fixtures dating back to the era typically feature ornate patterning, such as geometric motifs, sunbursts, ziggurats, linework and fountains. Commonly used materials included chrome, glass, Bakelite and bronze. When in doubt, consider having a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer assist you with making an identification. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of Art Deco lamps.
- What are art deco lamps made of?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Art deco lamps come in a variety of shapes, sizes and styles. Vintage art deco-style lamps were made of natural materials such as metal, glass and pottery. You’ll find a variety of art deco lamps from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
