Vtg. Art Deco Desk Lamp

Vintage Art Deco Brass Gooseneck Desk Lamp with Ribbed Milk Glass Shade

Pull-Chain Task Lamp | 1920s–Mid-Century Style

This elegant, freshly rewired vintage brass desk lamp is a beautiful example of Art Deco–inspired lighting, combining sculptural form with practical design. Standing 22” tall with an 8” diameter base and a 14” gooseneck arm including the light, this lamp offers both visual presence and focused illumination—perfect for desks, side tables, or reading nooks.

The Art Deco movement, flourishing from the 1920s through the 1940s, emphasized luxury, modernity, and stylized forms. Lighting from this era often featured rich materials such as brass and glass, blending decorative appeal with everyday function. This lamp reflects those principles through its refined proportions, elegant curves, and thoughtful detailing.

Crafted in warm brass, the lamp features a graceful gooseneck design that allows the shade to be positioned for directed light, making it ideal as a task or reading lamp. The ribbed milk glass shade softly diffuses light while adding classic Art Deco texture and visual interest. A traditional pull-chain switch completes the design, a hallmark feature of mid-20th-century lamps and later Art Deco revival pieces.

This style of lamp remained popular well beyond its original era, frequently appearing in Art Deco revival interiors, studios, libraries, and offices. Its timeless silhouette works equally well in vintage, industrial, modern, or eclectic spaces, offering both function and sculptural beauty.
