1940s Stiffel Brass Banquet Lamps – Ornate Bases, Milk Glass Shades
An elegant pair of 1940s Stiffel banquet lamps, showcasing the brand’s renowned craftsmanship and signature neoclassical influence. Each lamp features a richly detailed brass base with foliate and beaded motifs, culminating in milk glass torchiere-style shades. The ornate key-style switches and pierced brass galleries further enhance their decorative appeal.
Crafted from solid brass, these tall, stately lamps are both functional and collectible, ideal for adding a sense of grandeur to dining rooms, libraries, or entryways. Their substantial form and intricate detailing make them a true statement pair.
Both lamps retain their original finish and styling, and each is marked with the Stiffel hallmark, confirming their provenance. A classic example of mid-century American lighting design with a nod to the Victorian revival aesthetic.
Condition:
In very good vintage condition. The brass shows a warm, aged patina with minor oxidation and wear appropriate to age. Some small scuffs and surface marks are visible, primarily to the base. The milk glass shades are intact and free from chips or cracks. Both lamps are tested and in working condition.
Dimensions:
Height: 29 inches
Base Diameter: Approx. 6.5 inches
