Vintage Stiffel French Bouillotte-Style Table Lamp

Timeless, sculptural, and unmistakably refined—this vintage Stiffel lamp is a perfect blend of French influence and American craftsmanship. With its solid brass base and iconic bouillotte-style black tole shade, this piece adds quiet drama and charm wherever it lands.

At 30” tall with a 29” diameter, it’s a medium-sized lamp with a strong presence. The three-arm candle-style design produces a warm, flattering glow, controlled by a rotary knob and powered by its original brown cord. Minor imperfections on the shade and timeworn patina on the brass are consistent with age—and only add to its story.
