Simple Vintage Lighting For Sale on 1stDibs
At 1stDibs, there are many versions of the ideal piece of simple vintage lighting for your home. Frequently made of metal, brass and glass, every item from our selection of simple vintage lighting was constructed with great care. Your living room may not be complete without a choice in our collection of simple vintage lighting — find older editions for sale from the 20th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 20th Century. An object in our assortment of simple vintage lighting, designed in the Mid-Century Modern, Industrial or Modern style, is generally a popular piece of furniture. Many designers have produced at least one well-made option in this array of simple vintage lighting over the years, but those crafted by Serge Mouille, Early Electrics Design Studio and George W. Hansen are often thought to be among the most beautiful.
How Much is a Simple Vintage Lighting?
A piece of simple vintage lighting can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price 1stDibs is $935, while the lowest priced sells for $110 and the highest can go for as much as $20,453.
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.
