The Antique and Vintage Table Lamp Co are renowned for their range of antique decorative lighting. Table lamps for interior lighting have been used for the past 120 years; in fact, the first light bulb was produced in the 1870’s.
Antique lamps have several distinct advantages to offer as each lamp is an original, produced as a “one off” with no element of mass production. The company’s lamps share, with antiques in general, the advantage of improving in value over time.
The use of antique lighting adds an element of uniqueness to an interior and can be used as bed side lamps, desk lamps, reading lamps, or, simply placed as a decorative lighting element in illuminating a room.
The company’s range of lamps includes a number of 19th century Chinese export lamps. Here indeed is “a rose by many names”. These export porcelains are also known as Famille Rose, Rose Medallion, Canton export and Mandarin to name just a few!
These Famille Rose lamps were made at the great kilns of Jingdezhen and sent to the South of China, to the export port of Canton; here they were decorated in the bright palette of coloured enamels, which today is generally known as Chinese Export. These brightly enamelled porcelains are full of colour and decorated with vigorous scenes of figures in tea houses, the Imperial court and domestic every day life.
Remember also, The Antique & Vintage Table Lamp Co is celebrated for its exquisite, handmade silk lampshades in all styles, knife or box pleated, gathered, ruffled or plain. Sconce shades can also be ordered.
Maurice Robertson, principal of The Antique and Vintage Table Lamp Co , has had a lifetime’s association with antique porcelain and pottery. From an early age he recalls picking up tea cups, looking for the mark on the base, discerning the maker.
His commercial experience spans a period of 40 years. This includes 25 years as an international specialist dealer for the gallery formerly known as “The Antique Porcelain Gallery”, in Sydney’s Martin Place and as a valuer to the Australian Commonwealth Government’s Incentive to the Arts Scheme.
His long experience with antique ceramics and glass also includes dealing with leading museums and numerous international private collections.
He is also well known as a regular lecturer to ceramic societies, fine arts societies, he also consults to leading auction houses and has been a sought after contributor to magazines and journals with articles on antique ceramics.
Extending his ceramics expertise into the quality table lamps seen on the company’s site, he is well known to local and international interior designers who have included many of his table lamps in their projects and has also supplied items of national interest to the official Sydney residence of the Australian Prime Minister.
