Finding the Best Vintage Table Lamps

Vintage table lamps are both practical and beautiful. 

They are typically very old and are designed to be ornate. 

Most are made in very intricate designs that are elegant and help accentuate a room.

The designs vary depending on the year of the model.

Some of these beautifully crafted pieces of functioning art are older the one hundred years.

Finding them is not always easy.

Most estate sales, as well as antiquities auction houses and even online market places like Amazon will usually have a good selection of vintage lamps.

For wide selections, specialty stores that deal mostly in antique and vintage lamps are best. 

The designs and art work can come from all over the world.

Beautifully designed and crafted table lamps from China, Japanese, and France are among the most sought after.

They are typically known by their specific regional design styles.

French lamp craftsmen used designs based on ancient Greece, as well as period French antiquities, specifically busts of important people in French history, like Marie Antoinette.

British craftsmen liked to convey imagery on their lamps, similar to the "Blue Willow" China sets from late periods.

There are different designs for different tastes and the designs can be dated to a specific era, and even a specific region.

However, when you are looking for your Vintage table lamps, whatever your tastes may be, you can find it.
