Arts and Crafts Table Lamps

ARTS AND CRAFTS STYLE

Emerging in reaction to industrialization and mass production, the Arts and Crafts movement celebrated handcrafted design as a part of daily life. The history of Arts and Crafts furniture has roots in 1860s England with an emphasis on natural motifs and simple flourishes like mosaics and carvings. This work is characterized by plain construction that showcases the hand of the artisan.

The earliest American Arts and Crafts furniture dates back to the start of the 20th century. Designers working in this style in the United States initially looked to ideas put forth by The Craftsman, a magazine published by Wisconsin native Gustav Stickley, a furniture maker and founder of the Craftsman style. Stickley’s furniture was practical and largely free of ornament. His Craftsman style drew on French Art Nouveau as well as the work he encountered on his travels in England. There, the leading designers of the Arts and Crafts movement included William Morris, who revived historical techniques such as embroidery and printed fabrics in his furnishings, and Charles Voysey, whose minimal approach was in contrast to the ornamentation favored in the Victorian era.

American Arts and Crafts work would come to involve a range of influences unified by an elevation of traditional craftsmanship. The furniture was often built from sturdy woods like oak and mahogany while featuring details such as inlaid metal, tooled leather and ceramic tiles. The style in the United States was led by Stickley, whose clean-lined chairs and benches showcased the grain of the wood, and furniture maker Charles Rohlfs, who was informed by international influences like East Asian and French Art Nouveau design.

Hubs in America included several utopian communities such as Rose Valley in Pennsylvania and the Byrdcliffe Arts and Crafts Colony in New York, where craftspeople made furniture that prioritized function over any decoration. Their work would influence designers and architects including Frank Lloyd Wright, who built some of the most elegant and iconic structures in the United States and likewise embraced a thoughtful use of materials in his furniture.

Hand Forged Wrought Iron Arts & Crafts Style Table Lamp with Top Quality Roses
Located in Lisse, NL
Amazing quality and beautifully stylish Arts & Crafts style table or desk lamp. If you love the Arts and Crafts style in general and roses in particular then this could be the perfect table lamp for your home or (home) office. Because of the amazing details in the rose flower sculptures it must have taken the artisan weeks if not months to create this amazing lamp. The result of his skill and dedication is a truly unique and extremely detailed, wrought iron work of lighting art. Looking at the amazing details in the petals and even in the small leafs of these perfect rose sculptures it makes this table lamp a bit of an enigma. Why? Because we have never before seen a wrought iron table or desk lamp of this quality and detail that was NOT an antique. From the lack of wear and by looking at the glass, we think this lamp is no older than 25 years. It could be a completely restored and re-blackened antique light, but we can't be sure. This lamp really is a work of art, because the way in which the petals are curled and realistically detailed is almost impossible to do. In the daytime this is like a sculptural work of art and in the evenings, with the light switched on, it creates the perfect atmosphere no matter where you decide to have her on display. Whether you place this awesome lamp on your desk, on your credenza or on your sidetable, it will always make people stop and want to study it, because you just don't find this type of workmanship anymore. Professionally rewired for safe and immediate usage in the USA as well, this unique and mint condition Arts and Crafts style table lamp...
