Bellhop Lamp For Sale on 1stDibs

At 1stDibs, there are many versions of the ideal bellhop lamp for your home. Frequently made of organic material, resin and aluminum, every bellhop lamp was constructed with great care. A bellhop lamp, designed in the Modern style, is generally a popular piece of furniture.

How Much is a Bellhop Lamp?

The average selling price for a bellhop lamp at 1stDibs is $531, while they’re typically $295 on the low end and $1,195 for the highest priced.

Finding the Right Table-lamps for You

Antique table lamps became a category of their own once electricity moved light off the wall and onto furniture. The form split quickly: task-driven designs like the Anglepoise on one side, decorative ceramic and glass on the other.

Styles to Know

Base material shapes the light as much as the shade does: ceramic and glass diffuse a softer glow, while brass and metal read more directional. Layer the look with a mid-century modern floor lamp for ambient light, or set a pair on a mid-century modern nightstand for a bedroom.

How to Choose the Right Vintage Table Lamp

Buying individually rather than as a pair allows more flexibility when mixing eras across a room. For those shopping by name rather than by shape, the history of the Anglepoise lamp is worth a read. Each piece comes from a vetted 1stDibs seller, with era, designer and condition detailed, and the 1stDibs Promise stands behind every purchase.
