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.

Dazor Model 1000 Industrial Desk Lamp 1950s
By Dazor
Located in Tilburg, NL
Dazor Model 1000 Industrial desk lamp, United States, 1950s.
A real American classic, this Dazor Model 1000 desk lamp. Often seen on 1950s desks in modern offices. Stylish and very practical, this desk lamp with TL-lamps can be used on a desk, but can also be enjoyed in a living room. The goose neck is flexible and the lampshade can be positioned in any way desired. Fantastic industrial design, referring to streamline design and art deco shapes with great details like the buttons and the metallic lacquer.
The legacy of this lamp was highlighted when the set dressers of the iconic television series 'Mad Men' choose the Dazor 1000 als the standard desk lamp on the desks of all the employees in the beginning of the series, which starts around 1960. Main character Peggy Olson...
