"This practical guide by interior design expert Barty Phillips is a valuable reference book, it introduces the history of lighting in general and then focuses on lighting designs from the discovery and development of the light bulb in Victorian times. It is divided into eras (e.g. seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Victorian, Edwardian, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, post-war, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s) acting as a social history while highlighting the important styles and designers in each era and the reasoning behind the shapes and colours used. There are pointers to recognizing (sic) what is a true antique and what is a reproduction, on repairing and maintaining lamps including ceiling and wall lights, table lamps and floor lamps, with ideas on how to use vintage lighting in your own home."--Dust jacket.

The arrival of television sets in the American home during the 1940s brought about a fear that extensive viewing in a dark room of such a small TV screen would cause eye damage. Yet too much direct light would diminish the picture quality. Thus, television lamps were born. This pictorial guide sheds light on a collectible that was in its full glory between 1948 and 1958. Depicting people, birds, animals, vehicles, and others objects, television lamps are most often ceramic, some almost porcelain quality. Ceramic lamps as well as those made of plaster, chalk, glass, metal, and wood are showcased in this colorful book. Readers and collectors will admire the more than 350 full-color photographs and the exquisite forms and shapes displayed in these whimsical lighting devices that sometimes doubled as planters.
