Vintage Chinese
Vintage Lamps – Made in America
The Antique and Vintage Table Lamp Co are well known for their varied range of antique and vintage table lamps, with decorative lighting from England, France, China and Japan. Included in their range are examples of American made lamps.
Currently, the company has examples made in the States from the early 1930′s period, with glass lamps made by the Consolidated Glass Company. This famous American glass maker was located in Pennsylvania, with Reuben Haley as the leading designer. The art glass produced through this period is of outstanding quality and was greatly inspired by the French company of Rene Lalique.
The company was greatly reduced by the Great Depression and was closed from 1932 – 1936. Consolidated continued to produce very fine art glass through the 1940′s and 50′s but eventually closed, due to a factory fire in 1963.
Also listed in their on-line catalogue, a tall, U.S studio made, earthenware lamp with an arresting mega blast monochrome glaze of bright sunshine yellow! This American lamp was hand thrown by a studio potter in the 1920 – 1930 period. The lamp was designed to follow the form of the classical antique ”Yen Yen” shape produced by the Chinese porcelain makers of the 18th century. This studio piece was produced as a lamp and has been carefully looked after for the past 80 years, now completely refurbished and ready to shed it’s light again in a new interior.
A tall, American art studio, wheel thrown, earthenware table lamp in Chinese form. The lamp produced in the 1920 to 1930 period in a typical, rather curvaceous Art Deco style. Although a product of the Art Deco, its line follows the classic form of the Chinese “Yen Yen” shape of early 18th century porcelain, (particularly associated with the Kangxi period), “a long necked baluster style vase rising to a trumpet shaped mouth”. The lamp glazed with a mega watt burst of bright sunshine yellow. The lamp on a turned maple wood base, lacquered in Chinese black, the lamp cap of polished brass.
Art Deco – Circa 1930 Overall height (including shade) 31″/79cm
All the company’s lamps are “one-of-a kind” designs and are completely original. Each unique lamp is bench made with no aspect of repetitive production.
The company caters for the discerning buyer who knows that “the ordinary won’t do”, who demands more than mass produced products that roll off the conveyer belt in their thousands. Their lamps are completely hand made with the majority of their collection being genuine antiques, i.e., 100 years old or older.
Please remember that The Antique & Vintage Table Lamp Co ship lamps, ready wired for the U.S, the U.K and Australia. You are invited to visit The Antique & Vintage Table Lamp Co’s web site at www.antiquelampshop.com
