Railroad Light For Sale on 1stDibs

On 1stDibs, you can find the most appropriate railroad light for your needs in our varied inventory. In our selection of items, you can find contemporary examples as well as a modern version. If you’re looking for a railroad light from a specific time period, our collection is diverse and broad-ranging, and you’ll find at least one that dates back to the 19th Century while another version may have been produced as recently as the 21st Century. If you’re looking to add a railroad light to create new energy in an otherwise neutral space in your home, you can find a work on 1stDibs that features elements of gray, black, beige, white and more. Creating a railroad light has been a part of the legacy of many artists, but those crafted by Robert Cottingham, Jeanine Michna-Bales, Stephen Mallon, (after) Sonia Delaunay and (after) Henri Matisse are consistently popular. Frequently made by artists working in paint, paper and oil paint, these artworks are unique and have attracted attention over the years. A large railroad light can prove too dominant for some spaces — a smaller railroad light, measuring 8 high and 4.75 wide, may better suit your needs.

How Much is a Railroad Light?

The average selling price for a railroad light we offer is $2,673, while they’re typically $450 on the low end and $165,000 for the highest priced.
