Pair of Antique Victorian Floor Lamps

19th century
Description

A fantastic pair of antique Victorian floor lamps. They were made in England, they date from around the 1880-1900 period.

They were probably originally large candle sticks that have been converted to electrical lamps. One is solid elm, the other is solid satin wood, one may be have been made to match at a slightly later stage. They are identical in size and design, both have a lovely colour tone and patina.

We have had them stripped and re-polished to a very high standard, they have been re-wired and are in good working order. We have also paired them with a lovely pair of modern cream shades.

Width base – 11 inches , 27 cm

Width shades – 14 inches , 36 cm

Height to socket – 39 inches , 99 cm

Height to shade – 46 inches , 117 cm

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

Victorian floor lamps, historically known as standard lamps, typically feature turned wooden or cast metal central columns anchored by weighted circular or tripod bases. Designed during the nineteenth century, these fixtures provided elevated ambient lighting using oil, gas, or early electricity.

These lamps were primarily crafted from solid hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, oak, and pine, often shaped on a lathe to create intricate turned mouldings. Mounting components and electrical or gas fittings were typically manufactured from solid brass.

Authentic period pieces display distinct lathe marks, natural variations in hand-turned timber, and aged patina around the base and joinery. Additionally, older examples may show signs of historical conversion from oil or gas to modern electrical wiring.

Positioning a pair of standard lamps symmetrically on either side of a sofa, fireplace, or sideboard creates balance and warm accent lighting. Pairing traditional turned timber stems with clean neutral fabric shades allows them to blend into modern scheme settings.

Dust the timber stems regularly with a soft, dry cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish periodically to nourish the wood finish. Ensure all electrical wiring is tested by a qualified electrician to maintain modern safety standards.
