C1910-40 a Pullman Lamp

1900 - 1920
Description

Circa 1910-1940 a fine quality original brass Pullman lamp, in very good condition.

This is slightly shorter than some Pullman lamps, it measures 24.5cm in height to the top of the lightbulb holder, and the feet are approximately 14cm apart.

The old lightbulb holder and switch suggest it was last wired in the 1920-1930's and the fitting has GEC Made In England at the top, with a registration number just under the On/Off switches. It needs to be rewired, and the price reflects this.

We have some other Pullman lamps in stock of standard height. Please ask if you’d like us to send some photos.

Postage and packing for the UK mainland is included in the price and for outside areas or delivery abroad please contact us for a quote.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in the early 20th century, Pullman lamps were specifically designed to illuminate luxury railway carriages operated by the Pullman Car Company. They typically featured stable, weighted, or screw-down bases to remain upright during transit.

These lamps were almost exclusively manufactured from heavy cast brass or copper, providing durability and visual warmth within train interiors alongside turned stems and brass bulb holders.

Authentic examples often display heavy tripod or flange bases intended for fixing to surfaces, original push-bar light switches, and occasional maker marks or patent numbers stamped on the socket casing.

Place the lamp base on a timber writing desk, side table, or shelving unit to introduce a metallic accent that enhances traditional, industrial, or library-style room decor.

Dust the brass surface with a soft, dry cloth and use a non-abrasive metal polish periodically if a shiny mirror finish is desired, or leave unpolished to allow a natural aged patina to form over time.
