About the Item

Pair of Laurel Lamp Co. Mushroom Table Lamps, Circa 1965 A striking and iconic pair of Mid-Century Modern Mushroom Table Lamps by the Laurel Lamp Company, dating to approximately 1965. These lamps feature elegant white enameled metal bases topped with frosted white glass dome shades, creating the distinctive mushroom silhouette that made this design a staple of the era. Each lamp is operated via a rotary dimmer knob located on the upper neck, just below the shade, allowing for adjustable light levels and adding both functionality and charm. Both lamps are in excellent working condition, casting a warm, diffused glow ideal for ambient lighting. The frosted glass shades are pristine, with no chips or cracks, offering a soft, even illumination. The bases show light wear consistent with age and use, including minor paint loss, which does not detract from their overall appeal and authenticity. The Mushroom Lamp is a celebrated form in mid-century lighting design, valued for its minimalist, organic shape and practical, atmospheric lighting. The Laurel Lamp Co. was at the forefront of American lighting innovation in the 1950s through the 1970s, often collaborating with leading designers and responding to the modernist demand for clean lines and sculptural utility. This specific mushroom silhouette, with its domed glass and metal stem, draws from both Bauhaus and Space Age aesthetics, offering a timeless blend of form and function. Laurel's version stands out for its craftsmanship and quality materials, especially the frosted glass, which was designed to glow evenly without harsh glare. These lamps are not only beautiful objects but also important artifacts from an era when American design was defining its modern voice. They remain highly sought after by collectors and decorators alike for their ability to complement both vintage and contemporary interiors.
