Antique Table Lamps - An enduring style

Table lamps- Circa 1920
The Antique and Vintage Table Lamp Co produces a custom made range of designer
table lamps. All of the company's table lamps are unique, with no lamp ever reproduced. The majority of The Antique and Vintage Table Lamp Co’s lamp bases are
antique, made over 100 years ago.
The style is predominantly classic, but often, surprisingly, it is realised that this classic style is perfectly at home in the contemporary room, after all, the very meaning of classic ensures its enduring style.
A recent addition to The Antique and Vintage Table Lamp Co’s lamp collection is a stunning pair of Wilton lamps produced in England circa 1925. The square shaped lamps mounted on custom made and water gilded Chinese style square bases.
Lamps at this high end of style have the innate ability to transform a room into an inviting and elegant setting.

Produced by the A.G. Harley-Jones Co, manufacturers of fine porcelain and earthenware at Fenton, Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire. Confusingly, the company was also known as The Royal Vienna Art Pottery and was in production from 1907-1934, however, little information has been published or is known about this obscure English factory.
