Industrial Furniture
INDUSTRIAL STYLE
Industrial floor lamps, bar stools, desks and other industrial-style furnishings have experienced a resurgence in popularity with the rise of interest in minimalist design.
It's a look that celebrates the past even as it suggests vigor, productivity and brawn. The newly chic industrial style of decor repurposes the simple, sturdy furniture of an earlier world of commerce — brushed-metal storage cabinets and display shelves, task lamps and pendant lights with enameled shades, work tables with worn wooden tops and cast-iron bases — and couples them with aesthetic touches emblematic of energy and optimism, from bright upholstery fabrics to flowers.
The rise in prominence of the industrial style has come hand-in-hand with the residential repurposing of former manufacturing and warehouse districts throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. In many loft apartments created in shuttered factories, the architectural envelope has been left intact.
Industrial-style interiors feature elements like raw brick walls, exposed steel beams and oak floors whose history is written in every pit and gouge. Iron and glass transom windows give definition and interest to small kitchen areas anchored by kitchen islands made of marble, steel and brass, while taxidermy or vintage neon signs serve as wall art in living rooms dotted with leather club chairs. Patina is the keynote to a decor in sync with such surroundings.
On 1stDibs you will find industrial furniture designs that wear their age beautifully — and were built to last.

Wim Rietveld "Panama" Lamp for Gispen, Netherlands, 1950
By Wim Rietveld, Gispen
Located in Amsterdam, NL
A beautiful adjustable wall lamp model "Panama" designed by Wim Rietveld and manufactured by Gispen in the Netherlands, circa 1950.
This iconic Dutch design lamp is made of high quality yellow lacquered metal, making it a true eye-catcher. It has a black with grey metal base and a red metal ornament that can be used as a tool for repositioning the lamp. This versatile piece would make a wonderful addition to any modern interior!
It remains in good original condition with minor wear consistent with age and use, preserving a beautiful patina.
The youngest son of architect and designer Gerrit Rietveld, Wim Rietveld (1924-1985) is considered to be one of the pioneers of Dutch Industrial design. In addition to furniture he also designs agricultural machinery, boats, trains and household equipment. After accomplishing the School for Crafts, Wim Rietveld was trained to become an instrument maker. In 1950 he started an evening course in Industrial Design at the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague. He combined his study with a job in his fathers’ workshop.
Being impressed by the high quality of his graduation work, Willem H. Gispen offered him a job in his company Gispen. In 1949, Wim Rietveld joined Gispen as a designer, taking over the job of W.H. Gispen, who retired from the company that year. He introduced ‘furniture for simple interiors’, in line with the thoughts of “Good Living”. At Gispen, Rietveld mainly designed office furniture but he also sidestepped to living room lights.
