What periods do these lamps come from?

The lighting options span several centuries, with particular concentrations in the early twentieth century, such as the 1920s and 1930s Art Deco period. You also find pieces originating from the nineteenth and seventeenth centuries, including carved wooden candlesticks and torchiere bases.

Are these lamps rewired for modern use?

Many listings indicate that older standard and floor lamps have received updated wiring to meet contemporary electrical standards. Buyers should check individual descriptions to confirm the current wiring status of each specific lamp.

What is the difference between standard lamps and torchiere bases?

Standard lamps are generally tall floor lamps designed primarily for electric illumination with a shade. Torchiere bases originate as tall decorative stands for candles or lamps, often featuring more ornate period carvings like putti.

How do I identify Art Deco walnut lighting?
