Wall Lamps

Wall lamps or wall chandeliers are a key part of the atmosphere as they can illuminate a painting or accentuate a hidden corner. They can also be used as a reading lamp or as highlights beside a flight of stairs. Another possibility is to place them next to or above a mirror. 

Every house needs lamps to brighten up its walls. When building a house, direct power points are usually planned so wall-mounted lamps can be installed directly. This way, there are no visible cords. A lamp with a cord, plug or switch can be used when a lamp has to be connected to a socket. Sometimes there is also the option to fit an on/off button on a model. Feel free to ask about the possibilities!

Wall lamps can be extremely functional. Think, for example, of an extendible lamp with a swing arm. It is really easy to work and read near one of these models. La Lampe Gras' models are famous. The industrial wall lamps have a swing arm which enables you to set the lamp to the perfect height. The light source can also be tilted and aimed at the desired direction. It can be used to highlight paintings and sculptures as well.

Picture lights, uplighters and downlighters are excellent for illuminating works of art and beautiful ornaments. A respectable collection has been put together in the section picture lamps.

Tiffany wall lamps also have their own section; just have a look at Tiffany lamps.

Wall lamps - that do not jut out too far - can play an essential role in mounting a flight of stairs safely. The different kinds of smooth, cylinder-shaped pipe lamps but also the richly decorated French Art Deco wall lamps can fulfill this role perfectly.

Sometimes, depending on the room, a wall lamp with a frivolous fitting functions better beside a mirror. Just have a look around on Artdecowebstore.com, there are so many possibilities! From small lamps to large models. The fittings can be carried out in brass, bronze, matte nickel and glossy nickel. The glass lampshades are available in opal white glass, matte opal glass, soft yellow glass, marble patterned glass, sanded glass and faceted glass.

We would also like to draw your attention to the Unica wall lamp for a moment. This wall lamp is handmade of solid bronze and is combined with mouth-blown protuberant etched glass.

An atmospheric wall lamp is extremely suitable for a hallway, living room, bedroom or home cinema. The lovely Art Deco lamps (Amsterdam school lamps in the style of the Tuschinsky Theatre in Amsterdam) are often decorated with patterns or marble patterned glass. The collection is handmade and can be customised as well. The fixtures of the wall lamps Sheraton and Trumpet, for instance, is available in brass, bronze or nickel. Its glass can be ordered in colourful motifs, different colours of marble patterns or in opal white glass. Changing the lamp's material will change the entire look of the piece.
