A crystal table lamp can be the centerpiece of not only your table but also the entire room. There are so many designs you can choose from: a modern design, an old design, or even the retro look. While not very popular yet, some manufacturers also make battery-operated table lamps to help save energy. I did extensive research on my favorite online retailer, Amazon.com, and picked out a few of my favorite table lamps that I’d like to display.
As we all know, whenever we start talking about the best crystal table lamp, we have to start with Waterford Crystal. Nothing beats the quality, style and sheer beauty of Waterford Crystal products. So, let’s start by looking at this Waterford Crystal 26″ Table Lamp.
This table lamp has a brass base in a stepped design starting with the largest step at the bottom. The carved feet really set off this lamp very well, and the glass foot gives the lamp an elegant yet open feel. The white fabric shade measures 16″ and has a 3-way rotary light switch so you can set your desired lighting level. The maximum bulb you should use is a 100-watt bulb. Only a little assembly is required for this Waterford crystal chandelier which will take 5 minutes.
This lamp has a classic design and the glass base will really fit into any contemporary or modern setting. And while you may think that a Waterford crystal chandelier is very expensive, you can actually get this beautiful crystal chandelier for around $425 off.
If you want to spend a little less on your crystal table lamp but still want to get a modern feel at a discount, check out this Crystal Body Table Lamp. This is a beautifully designed lamp with four glass globes that ascend in size from top to bottom. It has a white shade that is made to give perfect lighting without detracting from the contemporary stem. This lamp also uses the 3 way switch and a 100 watt max bulb.
This lamp is not cheap, but you can get it for a good discount of $164. This is $85 off the list price. Not a bad price for one of the most beautiful lamps I’ve ever seen.
If you are looking for a vintage glass table lamp with an antique look, we have what you need with this Vintage Table Lamp with crystals. This lamp has a cracked red stem that has a gold and slate finish. The remarkable hand painting really gives the antique-looking lamp a vintage feel, just like something you’d see in your grandmother’s house decades ago.
It has a fabric shade that diffuses light evenly to give you perfect lighting. The 4 crystals require a candelabra bulb in each and comes with an inline switch. I think this vintage light is perfect if you like the old look rather than a modern twist. This chandelier is one of the cheapest vintage glass chandelier at $172 off.
Now this glass table lamp with a contemporary glass-like shade is very unique and modern. It is certainly the complete opposite of the vintage lamps we have just seen above! This lamp has chandelier style lighting from the 3 glass “lamp shades”. It has a thin stem and a round base to give it plenty of support. It’s made of acrylic and steel, and the manufacturer says it’s easy to assemble. It uses regular 40 watt chandelier bulbs that you should be able to get at any hardware store. I’m not sure exactly what type of lighting this lamp provides, but it sure is one of the most unique, stylish and contemporary table lamps available!
I really wanted to find a cordless glass table lamp that I could show you around, but it turns out that there aren’t many battery-operated table lamps available. So let’s look at this BettyLou Cordless LED Lamp instead. This lamp is made almost 100% glass and will work in any contemporary setting. Since it runs on batteries, one question to always ask yourself is how long will it stay on? Well, the answer is that this cordless light will provide excellent lighting for more than 7 hours. It has a very efficient LED light that allows it to provide light for an extended period of time, making this battery-powered lamp perfect for special occasions or even everyday use.
There isn’t really a discount on this cordless lamp, but it’s still unique enough to be worth its $199 price tag.
Now there are different types and styles of table lamps that you can choose from. For example, Tiffany lamps differ from other lamps by the type of shade they have. You can even divide the Tiffany lamps into other styles: Victorian and Mission. Mica table lamps are also becoming increasingly popular for the fascinating way in which they emit light. Wrought iron lamps with their various distinctive designs and appearances are another option.
Lastly, don’t forget the lampshades. Lampshades are no longer just a decorative piece. Many times they are the focal point of the entire lamp. Lampshades come in various materials such as silk, glass, paper, and metal.
