Inspired by antique designs, lily pad lamps are the perfect way to introduce vintage charm to your home. Their look may be unique, but that doesn’t mean that a lily pad lamp is only for certain types of décors. In fact, a lily pad-style lamp would look especially good in a more avant-garde home due to its artistic design. Our design experts have picked out a handful of the best lily pad lamps below so you can find your perfect match.
Our Picks
Tall Lily Pad Lamp
The Natural Light
Available in classic white or oatmeal brown, this lamp measures 32.5 inches tall. Made with a metal base that has nine lily pad leaves included, it stands on a matte round base. A three-way switch is included, but no bulb.
Designer Advice:
Elegant and sophisticated, this lamp is the perfect choice for an entryway. Pair it with a gleaming white console table with a gilded mirror above in a rectangular shape for added depth and texture. You could also use this lamp to create a soft ambiance in your living room, though the end table would have to be wide due to the design.

Delicate Lily Pad Lamp
Astoria Grand
You can pick from blue or pink with this lamp. It has a delicate design featuring two lily flowers and a winding stem leading down to a base made of dark antique bronze. An in-line switch is included, though no bulb.
Striking Lily Lamp
Meyda Tiffany
A recreation of Tiffany-style lamps from the beginning of the 19th century, this lamp stands on a mahogany bronze base. The three shades hang down softly and feature a striking blue finish. It includes no bulb but does have a rocker switch.
Designer Advice:
This lamp would look beautiful in a bedroom. The electric blue will turn your room into a cool and revitalizing place to spend time without being too bright. For an antique look, pair your lamp with a bedside table that has a similar burnished bronze finish. Bronze furniture automatically looks more vintage than silver due to its naturally aged finish.
