Vaseline Glass Shades For Sale on 1stDibs
An assortment of vaseline glass shades is available at 1stDibs. The range of distinct vaseline glass shades — often made from glass, uranium glass and metal — can elevate any home. Vaseline glass shades have long been popular, with older editions for sale from the 19th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 20th Century. Arts and Crafts, Victorian and Art Nouveau vaseline glass shades are consistently popular styles. Vaseline glass shades have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by W.A.S. Benson and William Arthur Benson are consistently popular.
How Much are Vaseline Glass Shades?
Prices for vaseline glass shades can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, vaseline glass shades begin at $646 and can go as high as $94,800, while the average can fetch as much as $1,724.
Finding the Right Lighting for You
The right table lamp, outwardly sculptural chandelier or understated wall pendant can work wonders for your home. While we’re indebted to thinkers like Thomas Edison for critically important advancements in lighting and electricity, we’re still finding new ways to customize illumination to fit our personal spaces all these years later. A wide range of antique and vintage lighting can be found on 1stDibs.
Today, lighting designers like the self-taught Bec Brittain have used the flexible structure of LEDs to craft glamorous solutions by working with what is typically considered a harsh lighting source. By integrating glass and mirrors, reflection can be used to soften the glow from LEDs and warmly welcome light into any space.
Although contemporary innovators continue to impress, some of the classics can’t be beat.
Just as gazing at the stars allows you to glimpse the universe’s past, vintage chandeliers like those designed by Gino Sarfatti and J. & L. Lobmeyr, for example, put on a similarly stunning show, each with a rich story to tell.
As dazzling as it is, the Arco lamp, on the other hand, prioritizes functionality — it’s wholly mobile, no drilling required. Designed in 1962 by architect-product designers Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, the piece takes the traditional form of a streetlamp and creates an elegant, arching floor fixture for at-home use.
There is no shortage of modernist lighting similarly prized by collectors and casual enthusiasts alike — there are Art Deco table lamps created in a universally appreciated style, the Tripod floor lamp by T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, Greta Magnusson Grossman's sleek and minimalist Grasshopper lamps and, of course, the wealth of mid-century experimental lighting that emerged from Italian artisans at Arredoluce, FLOS and many more are hallmarks in illumination innovation.
With decades of design evolution behind it, home lighting is no longer just practical. Crystalline shaping by designers like Gabriel Scott turns every lighting apparatus into a luxury accessory. A new installation doesn’t merely showcase a space; carefully chosen ceiling lights, table lamps and floor lamps can create a mood, spotlight a favorite piece or highlight your unique personality.
The sparkle that your space has been missing is waiting for you amid the growing collection of antique, vintage and contemporary lighting for sale on 1stDibs.
Questions About Vaseline Glass Shades
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To tell if vaseline glass is real, you’re going to want to purchase a small UV blacklight, typically a flashlight. Uranium glass that’s green or yellow in hue (vaseline glass) contains uranium oxide, which will glow when exposed to a black light. Shop a large collection of authentic vaseline and uranium glass from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021Yes, you can paint a glass lamp shade. You can use glass paints or acrylic paint to give old glass fixtures an inexpensive makeover. You can also use stencils for added visual appeal. Find a variety of lamp shades on 1stDibs.
