What is the value of a Rembrandt floor lamp?
It depends on whether it is original or has been altered. If it has great appeal I would say a minimum of $250.00 I have several lamps and smoke tables made by Rembrandt.
What is a rembrandt floor lamp?
A Rembrandt floor lamp is a lamp made by the Rembrandt Lighting Company located in Chicago. Research failed to provide a starting date for the company. When the Harris Marcus Group, a lamp assembler, acquired the Rembrandt Light Company in the late 1970s or early 1980s, it retained the Rembrandt trade name and continued to produce a Rembrandt line of lamps. The Rembrandt Lighting Company’s name was inspired by Rembrandt Peale. Rembrandt Peale (1778-1860), famed as a painter and museum impresario, illuminated his Baltimore museum by gas light. Peale obtained a gas lighting patent and founded the Gas Light Company of Baltimore with the support of several associates. There appears to be no direct connection between Rembrandt Peale and the Rembrandt Lighting Company. Several sources indicate that Rembrandt Lighting Company first produced shades for gas lamps, thus the Rembrandt Peale connection. By the end of World War I, the company manufactured a wide variety of floor and table lamps. A torchier-style floor lamp was a popular model. The company also produced table top lamps, often in pairs. Following World War II, the company began using acrylic in some designs. Rembrandt Lighting Company produced high-quality, high-style lamps. Many of the floor models feature marble bases or had marble incorporated into the base design. Art Deco decorative elements were common in the 1920s and early 1930s. Rembrandt floor lamps came in a wide variety of style. Assuming a 1920s/1930s floor lamp is in fine or better conditions, dealer secondary market asking prices begin around $250 and exceed $1,000 on occasion. Buying Tip: Examine the shade carefully. Make certain it is not a replacement.
