Up Ceiling Light For Sale on 1stDibs
With a vast inventory of beautiful furniture at 1stDibs, we’ve got just the up ceiling light you’re looking for. An up ceiling light — often made from metal, glass and brass — can elevate any home. If you’re shopping for an up ceiling light, we have 2073 options in-stock, while there are 651 modern editions to choose from as well. Your living room may not be complete without an up ceiling light — find older editions for sale from the 18th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 21st Century. When you’re browsing for the right up ceiling light, those designed in mid-century modern, modern and Art Deco styles are of considerable interest. A well-made up ceiling light has long been a part of the offerings for many furniture designers and manufacturers, but those produced by Glashütte Limburg, Massive Lighting and Louis Poulsen are consistently popular.
How Much is a Up Ceiling Light?
Prices for an up ceiling light can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, they begin at $30 and can go as high as $700,000, while the average can fetch as much as $2,081.
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.
