Stylish art nouveau lamp with a fabric shade

19” high, this lamp is the perfect accent for art nouveau rooms: the harmonious lines of its base and the decorative crystals are guaranteed to make a strong statement. This lamp will also match your other black or iron elements.

Designer Advice:

Consider fabric types and thickness when choosing your new art nouveau lamp. Translucent shades (white or particularly thin fabric) result in a brighter effect, diffusing the light around that area. So, they’re better suited for ambiance lighting. Opaque shades (thicker or darker) direct pools of light upwards and downwards: perfect for task lighting.

Torchiere lamp in an art nouveau design

This 13” art nouveau lamp displays a show-stopping shade. Made of glass, it has a bell design in a warm alabaster hue. It’s ideal for creating a special ambiance in your living room, while the brown base might even match your room’s wooden finishes.

Designer Advice:

Given its quirky torchiere design, this art nouveau lamp can be used to create compositions or complement some other items visually. For example, you could place it next to some shorter books to inspire a sense of verticality. If it’s on an end table, on the other hand, position it next to a taller pot with flowers.

Art nouveau lamp in a warm palette

This Tiffany lamp reaches a whopping 25” in height. So, you can use it to make a bold statement in your living room. At the same time, the eye-catching metal base relies on a versatile neutral finish: perfect to match most palettes.

Designer Advice:

Of course, you can choose art nouveau lamps in the same colors as your palette. However, here’s another creative idea: in a room that mainly relies on cold colors, get a lamp with warm hues (and vice versa). This will turn it into a noticeable accent, helping it stand out. Just include some small items in the same colors to keep everything cohesive.

Buying Guide

If you're looking for something stylish but classic and useful yet beautiful all rolled into one piece of furniture for your home, look no further than the chic art nouveau lady lamps. Available in a wide range of styles that are bound to take your fancy and appeal to a variety of tastes, here are the main things you should consider when buying one of these items.

How to decorate with an art nouveau lady lamp?

Art nouveau, or new art, is a style in itself that encompasses a range of designs. If you don't want something plain for your home, this is the ideal alternative that means you don't have to add much else to the room. In fact, adding much more detail and design to one room could cause it to seem busy, so if you're buying a lady lamp with lots going on, be minimalistic with the rest of your décor.

Some art nouveau lamps have such beautiful designs that homeowners have decided to use them as the main centerpiece for the room. This could be in the middle of your dining table, if the size of the lamp is suitable, or you can position it on a small table in the middle of the room. While larger lamps should be kept in the corner of a room, smaller lamps can look very elegant and suitable on tables which are more central.

Can art nouveau lady lamps be used for task lighting?

While you can use the lamp as a way to control the lighting levels in the room, they are also very useful as desk or table lamps. The ideal companion for studying in the evening hours, you can use an art nouveau lady lamp to brighten up your night. The different styles mean that you'll always find one in the right shape for whichever table or desk you need it.

What are art nouveau lady lamps crafted from?

Most of these lamps are made from sturdy materials such as metal or glass, so they will last a very long time. The downside to glass lamps, is that they can be easily smashed if you don't take care when handling them. Not recommended for homes where there are young children, a metal lamp would be more suitable in this situation. However, you should ensure that lamps are kept out of the reach of young children at all times.

How to style with an art nouveau lady lamp?

Not only can you buy art nouveau lamps at auction or online which have been around for years and have become quite valuable at antiques, but you can also find lamps which are highly authentic. If you're decorating a room with a vintage feel and you want to contribute even further by adding a lady lamp, look for one which has candle holders. You can choose between using candles and burning a real authentic flame, or you can fix a bulb to the lamp and enjoy the light using a power source. Whichever option you choose, it's great to have the choice and such a versatile item which can work to suit you.

What is the best lamp to decorate an antique office?

The best type of lamp to decorate an antique office provides adequate light and enhances the vintage vibe. With brass accents and a focused beam, like an antique bronze base table lamp, you can meet both these expectations while still maintaining a professional look.

An articulated lamp blends nicely with the classic aura of your office while being practical in that you can focus it any which way you like. Look for lamps that bend in multiple directions, like reading lamps, to create an illuminated desk area.

If you want to blend polished with vintage, you can’t do any better than the classic banker’s lamp, which has a broad brass base and a green glass top. This type of antique bronze base lamp strikes anyone who sees it as a throwback to the past. If you’re trying to add a lamp to decorate your antique office, a bronze brass base is synonymous with classic vintage style.

How to style an antique bronze lamp?

When you’re styling an antique bronze base table lamp, you’ll want to make sure that you’re not mixing metals. Mixing metals is perfectly fine for a modern aesthetic, but if you’re trying to lean into that antique, aged, traditional feel, try to secure other bronze metals around the rest of your room.

A cream or navy shade would be best, to accentuate the classic feel of your bronze lamp. Place wooden or textured fabric accents nearby, along with other accent pieces like globes, books, candles, and more.
