FAQs

The banker lamp style, often characterised by a metal shade and adjustable arm, gained widespread popularity in the early 20th century across offices and libraries for its focused task lighting.

These lamps were typically constructed from solid brass or cast bronze, often paired with glass shades, providing durability and a polished aesthetic.

Authentic pieces often feature heavy cast metal construction, period-correct wiring methods, maker stamps, and natural patina or wear consistent with age.

An antique brass lamp provides a striking metallic contrast when placed on a contemporary timber desk or paired with minimalist decor to add warmth and character.

Brass surfaces should be dusted gently with a soft dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemical polishes that can strip the desirable aged patina accumulated over decades.
