JENNY Large Wall Light or Sconce in Enamel & Brass by Blueprint Lighting
Located in New York, NY
Introducing Jenny, the latest vintage-inspired fixture from Blueprint Lighting. Named for multi-hyphenate Jenny Mollen; NYT best-selling author, actress, design enthusiast, mom of 2 and wife of actor Jason Biggs. From our Chief Luminary, Kelly Aaron: "I have been working closely with Jenny off and on for the past year while she gives her NYC apartment a facelift--it's been so fun! She and I share a love of 1950s French design, which is obviously a hallmark of the Blueprint aesthetic. One day Jenny texted a pic of a single vintage mid-century French wall sconce she loved and asked if Blueprint could make it for her. Funny enough--I, too, had seen that same sconce the day before and already had my Creative Director/Husband figuring out how to fabricate it. How great is that?! It was meant to be!"

Hjra Table Lamp, Handspun and Handwoven wool lampshade, Made of Rock and Reed
Located in Marseille, FR
- Handspun and handwoven white lampshade - made of 100% Siroua wool, an endangered sheep living in a volcanic massif with very long wool fibers, located less than 100 km from the weavers' village - the lampshade is made in the Anti-Atlas region by the weavers from the Feija tribe and then the table lamp is assembled by us using cannes de Provence (local reed) and local rock in Marseille. Approximate measurements: 25 L x 25 W x 56 H CM 9.8 L x 9.8 W x 22 H IN For US customers, we put e26 socket and a plug adaptor. The Anti-Atlas region of Morocco seems to be the only region in the world where henna is not only used to adorn the skin or to dye hair but also to decorate woollen textiles. Women weavers go on keeping this ancestral savoir-faire alive from generations to generations. Handmade : Variation is to be expected, each piece differs in color, size, shape and decorations due to its handmade nature and natural dyes. memòri is about simplicity, imperfections, and embracing the "flaws". Care instructions: Hand wash cold with wool detergent only when really necessary. About the artisan This village is landlocked in the mountains of the Moroccan Anti-Atlas, until the early 2000s, it was accessible only on foot or accompanied by mules.

Introducing Harper, the new wall lamp design by Blueprint Lighting. Named for Ace Harper; artist, musician, fashion designer, mother and wife of iconic rock drummer Matt Sorum. From our Chief Luminary, Kelly Aaron: "I have been working closely with Ace & Matt on their family home in Palm Springs. Ace fell madly in love with our Fauchard floor lamp and asked if we could make it in wall sconce form. Serendipitously enough, we were already working on that very design! But Ace's enthusiasm was the impetus to get it off the drawing board and into prototyping. I named the sconce for Ace because, like her, it's classically beautiful, totally badass and turns heads in any room!"

Vintage and Antique Lighting for Sale: Unique Table Lamps, Floor Lamps, Sconces and Other Lighting for Your Home

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.
