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.

Mazda French Industrial Lamp Redesigned by Lloyd Industrials color ral9010
Located in Rotterdam, NL
White Redesigned Industrial light pendant Mazda MLA1 These beautiful industrial design lamps come from old abandoned factories in France. The lamps were equipped with a 700 watt gas discharge lamp so that there was enough light to work. We upcycle and reuse these types of old lamps so that they can shine a bright life again. Of course, with a new porcelain fitting that is suitable for economical LED lamps. All lamps have been made suitable by international standards for incandescent light bulbs, energy-efficient and LED bulbs. E26/E27 porcelain bulb holders. The lamps are supplied as standard with black textile (earthed) wiring (CE for 220volt and UL-listed for 110volt). OUR FACTORY LAMPS We search for the most unique industrial lighting in Europe. After all, only the best is good enough to be added to our collection. After years of faithful service in factory halls among workers, the lamps are marked by the space in which they have been allowed to shine. Weather influences, dust and use have given the lamps their own typical character. This also makes this industrial lamp an object with its own story. SUSTAINABLE REUSE OF THIS HANGING LAMP We believe in the preservation and sustainable reuse of this industrial heritage, the source of Lloyd Industrials...
