How do I clean a silver plated lamp?

Gentle dusting with a soft microfibre cloth is generally sufficient for regular maintenance, avoiding harsh abrasive dips that strip thin plating. Use a specialist silver polish sparingly on solid sterling pieces while taking care around fabric shades and glass components.

What is the difference between a standard lamp and a table lamp?

Standard lamps, often referred to as floor lamps, are tall freestanding lighting fixtures designed to rest directly on the floor beside furniture. Table lamps feature shorter columns or urn bodies intended to sit elevated upon desks, side tables, or credenzas.

How can I tell a Victorian lamp from an Edwardian one?

Victorian examples tend to display heavier neoclassical detailing, elaborate Corinthian capitals, and associations with oil-burning mechanics before electrification became standard. Edwardian and later pieces often lean towards cleaner columns, simpler stepped bases, or early twentieth-century chrome and Art Deco geometry.
