I found this lamp at a thrift store today for $7.99. Google lens tells me it’s worth something. I don’t know if it’s teak or walnut. I would like to know what I can do to treat the wood. I am in Denver where it’s very dry. Also, do you have any ideas about value? The wiring is very old. Should I replace it?
I found this at my local goodwill (which so happens to be next door to my work, yay!) and I bought it for $10. Is it worth it, or should I have left her? I’m new to the lamp world, but I got a beautiful gone with the wind lamp from a regular customer, and I’ve been on an adventure ever since!
I’m in the process of “fixing” it up and would like to get new lamp shades/a shade for it, but going off of measurements alone has been unsuccessful to say the least. Google also hasn’t been much help either 😅 it suggested a few things but all the results that turn up look nothing like this. I’m also aware that it might not really have a distinct name but I’m not an expert so I figured I’d ask anyway. Thoughts anyone?
I saw this lamp be carried out to behind the counter at the thrift store today and wanted it immediately. But it’s a hundred dollars. My friend looked the photo and said “dude is that a Tiffany?” Now I’m regretting maybe not splurging. Thought I’d see what the lamp community thinks if I messed up not grabbing it lol.
I scored this in my travels, has a great look.
Can anyone help? Or does anyone know how to fix this? I checked and i’m pretty sure the light bulb isn’t Bluetooth
Hi!! My MIL went on the Pride of America cruise in the Hawaiian islands and she wants to purchase these REALLY cool 6ft lamps at Vibe Beach Club. I was able to find this screenshot of them, but does anyone know where someone could perhaps.. purchase something like them?? Any insight would be helpful!! If not, any ideas on how we could make them???
update: Kindle Living based out of California
thank you for everyone’s help!
Can anyone help me figure out what lamp this is? I found one at a vintage store and would like to find a matching one. I’ve been able to find a picture of one but not the name of the lamp or where to get another one.
A while back, I purchased this lamp from an antique expo. The moment I saw it, I fell in love with it. I have never seen anything like it. The base of the lamp has a name stamped into the metal : E. Thomasson. I'm honestly not sure if this is an original casting or a later reproduction, but it is gorgeous nonetheless.
I have done some preliminary research and found that Emil Thomasson was known for his intricately designed sculptural pieces and bronze figural lamps. The Daphne lamp, pictured here, is one of his most well known pieces. The lamp is an art piece telling the story of the water nymph Daphne, who transformed into a laurel tree.
Stoked on this find. Curious if anyone knows anything about it- base looks original- the shade although is questionable? Not sure. The base is signed JC or maybe TC something- hoping someone recognizes the makers mark. Looks similar to a lamp by “Charles Ranc”- guessing different casting houses/manufactures did spin offs of his designs. Love knowing the history of the pieces I collect so if anyone has any expertise I’d be delighted to hear! Cheers
Can anyone tell if this is a real Tiffany lamp? It’s very heavy, i read that not all Tiffany lamps don’t have stamps but there is a 13 carved into the base under it.
Do you think this lamp works well for my dining area, or should I go in a different direction.
I serve in Ukraine’s 3rd Army Corps, and part of my role is creating ceramic pieces for fundraising. This ceramic lion lamp is from a series I made specifically for the corps. It’s called Lembyk Lev — a piece that mixes a folkloric Ukrainian character with the militarized reality we live in now. The whole series was created for the 3rd Army Corps, and all profit from it goes directly to support the corps’ needs.
Bonjour à tous !
Je viens chercher de l'aide pour identifier et estimer une lampe que j'ai récupérée après le décès de ma grand-mère, lors du vidage de son appartement.
D'après mes recherches, il s'agirait d'une lampe poliarte, datant des années 70, avec une structure en verre et métal. Cependant, je ne suis pas certaine de l'identification exacte, d'où mon post.
Le problème, c'est que je n'arrive absolument pas à la retrouver sur internet. Je ne trouve que des modèles ressemblants, mais jamais exactement la même.
J'ai seulement trouvé une lampe identique qui aurait été vendue au marché Paul Bert à Saint-Ouen, mais en version couleur ambre (il y a des couleurs plus rares que d'autres ?).Elle est désormais vendue, et il n'y avait pas de prix affiché.
J'avais initialement envisagé de la vendre autour de 250€, mais je pense être complètement à côté de la réalité (o.
J'aimerais donc :
- confirmer son identification (matière, époque, etc..)
- avoir une estimation réaliste
- savoir à qui ce type de pièce peut se vendre (brocanteurs, collectionneurs, dépôt-vente...)
J'ai déjà contacté deux professionnels du marché Paul Bert à Saint-Ouen pour une estimation pour un potentiel rachat (bonne idée ?), mais j'aimerais aussi des retours plus larges ici.
Merci d'avance à ceux qui prendront le temps de m'aider !

Saw this lamp at a local thrift store right after my wife asked if they had any interesting lamps. I’m sure some decal is missing or something- any ideas?
