Torch Lamps

Torchiere Floor Lamps

When it comes to floor lamps, torchiere lamps are something special. Tall, thin and graceful, the torchiere floor lamp is perhaps one of the most underrated types of floor lamps. This lamp gets its name from an old-fashioned torch. Dating back to the late 1600s, the original torch lamp consisted simply of a candle on a tall, thin stand.

Today, that basic torch floor lamp has evolved into a torchiere with the lampshade and base directed upward and electric bulbs replacing wax candles. Light years ahead of the original floor torch lamp, modern torchieres are often equipped with reflecting bowls that direct the light onto a ceiling or wall. That makes them a top-notch choice for applications where you need indirect lighting to showcase architectural features, artwork and other aspects of a room you wish to subtly highlight.

At 1800Lighting by Capitol Lighting, we are proud to be a top resource for quality-made, stylish torchiere floor lamps. We have hundreds of styles to suit modern and transitional living spaces as well as traditional, whimsical and rustic decorative schemes. You will find these classic lights from all the leading makers, including Quoizel Lighting and House of Troy.

Color Options for Torchiere Floor Lamps

For a touch of classic charm, you can decorate with one of our antique bronze torchiere floor lamps. These beautiful styles are topped with a rich, bronze-toned finish that works well in traditional, rustic and vintage living spaces.

For something a bit more contemporary, you may prefer our brushed satin nickel torchiere floor lamps. They make a lovely accent piece in any transitional, industrial or contemporary environment, thanks to their sleek, glossy appearances.

We also have elegant torchiere lamps in chrome-polished nickel, gold tones and brass. You can find conservative colors here, like black or white, or go with lively multicolored styles. Our broad palette of colors makes it possible for you to find a style that works with your existing decor or to come up with a total makeover.
