Our advice Buying Guide
Despite the grotesque features and the hideous demeanor, gargoyles command quite a fan following. One that has got a shot in the arm after the Harry Potter and the Game of Thrones universes unfolded. But the fact is that irrespective of whether you are a horror movie buff, a potterhead or just in awe of gothic architecture, Gargoyles make attractive décor pieces.
Gargoyle lamps in particular are perfect for both aesthetics and functionality. Picture walking into your library to be greeted by a gargoyle lamp hanging over the reading table. Or one on your porch with fiery red lit eyes to greet visitors. A bit creepy maybe. But certainly not run-of-the-mill.
If you’d like to add one of these to your home, then here are some of the important things to consider.
Where will the Gargoyle roost?
Gargoyle spouts were a common feature in Gothic architecture used to drive water away from the buildings. This makes Gargoyle lamps perfect for outdoor applications like the porch, the yard or the patio. It adds a touch of medieval design to your façade and certainly doesn’t hurt the aesthetics one bit.
However, you’d have to select a material that can stand up to the weather. Or ensure that it’s installed in a shaded or protected area, away from exposure to the elements.
For indoor use though, you have tons of options to choose from. There are gargoyle table lamps, floor lamps, wall lamps as well as ceiling lamps. Check the available space as well as an outlet to connect the lighting fixture before you narrow down on one.
What are gargoyle lamps crafted from?
The gargoyle figure in a gargoyle lamp is often made of metal, like wrought iron or bronze. While this allows the design to stay true to the vintage element that it’s associated with, it makes these fixtures heavier than normal lamps.
Some manufacturers offer these lamps in heavy duty plastic. These are better suited for outdoor use. However, if you plan to install this on drywall or on the ceiling, ensure that you have the hardware needed for it.
The lampshades can be made of fabric, glass or plastic.
What are the different designs of gargoyle lamps?
The biggest draw of a gargoyle lamp is the design. And there are hundreds of them to choose from. What style of Gargoyle do you fancy?
- There are the conventional gothic gargoyles which are like a mix of a dragon and a demon. You can pick one of these if you are aiming for a sinister looking lighting fixture.
- Then there are the Potter Universe fueled modern interpretations which veer more towards the dragon. These are better suited for children’s rooms.
- One of the most common designs has the lampshade suspended from the Gargoyle’s teeth or have the Gargoyle holding the lampshades.
- Table lamps can have gargoyles figurines on the base.
- A gargoyle with a globe in hand will look stunning with a color changing LED bulb in it.
How to choose a gargoyle lamp size?
Gargoyles with their large wingspan and protruded snouts can have a much larger footprint than what it appears to be. Measure the available space before you select a design.
- For table lamps, account for the additional space needed for the other décor pieces or the things that you typically place on the table.
- If the lamp is installed in an entryway, then ensure that there’s enough clearance around it to allow people to move freely.
- Outdoor lamps are typically larger than the ones used indoors. Measure the height, width, depth, and wingspan.
- Does the lampshade hang lower than the statute? Ensure that it's installed at the right height.
