Lighting For Picture For Sale on 1stDibs

Choose from an assortment of styles, material and more with respect to the lighting for picture you’re looking for at 1stDibs. Frequently made of metal, glass and brass, every lighting for picture was constructed with great care. If you’re shopping for a lighting for picture, we have 865 options in-stock, while there are 478 modern editions to choose from as well. There are many kinds of the lighting for picture you’re looking for, from those produced as long ago as the 18th Century to those made as recently as the 21st Century. A lighting for picture made by mid-century modern designers — as well as those associated with modern — is very popular. Many designers have produced at least one well-made lighting for picture over the years, but those crafted by Niche, Serge Mouille and Maison Baguès are often thought to be among the most beautiful.

How Much is a Lighting For Picture?

A lighting for picture can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price 1stDibs is $2,465, while the lowest priced sells for $104 and the highest can go for as much as $286,800.

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.

    To put a picture in a heart necklace, first open the locket. Some heart lockets come with a removable insert shaped like the interior of the pendant. If yours does, remove the insert, place it on the photo, trace around it and then use the guidelines to cut out a heart. Should your locket not contain an insert, create a pattern out of a piece of cardstock or thick construction paper. Once you have the photo cut, insert one corner of the photo into the pendant first and smooth it into place with a toothpick. Repeat the process on the opposite corner diagonally and then slide the remaining corners into place. Work slowly to avoid scratching or creasing the photo. Shop a collection of heart locket necklaces on 1stDibs.
