We have 456 antique and vintage vessel lamps in-stock, while there are 12 modern editions to choose from as well.

Some vessel lamps are too large for some spaces — a variety of smaller vessel lamps, measuring 2.76 inches across, are available at 1stDibs. Vessel lamps have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Marcello Fantoni, Michael Andersen & Son and Ferdinand Barbedienne are consistently popular.

How Much are Vessel Lamps?

The average selling price for at 1stDibs is $2,105, while they’re typically $0 on the low end and $50,000 highest priced.

Finding the Right Table Lamps for You

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.
