With a vast inventory of beautiful furniture at 1stDibs, we’ve got just the miller glass lamp you’re looking for. A miller glass lamp — often made from
glass,
metal and
slag glass — can elevate any home. Whether you’re looking for an older or newer miller glass lamp, there are earlier versions available from the 19th Century and newer variations made as recently as the 20th Century. When you’re browsing for the right miller glass lamp, those designed in
Arts and Crafts,
Art Nouveau and
Art Deco styles are of considerable interest.
Miller Lamp Company,
Bradley & Hubbard and
Walter Von Nessen each produced at least one beautiful miller glass lamp that is worth considering.
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.
