Dating to the the late 1930’s, this unusual bouilotte style lamp was made by the Rembrandt Lamp Company of Baltimore, Maryland. Rembrandt began operations in 1816 and soon became established as a maker of high-quality gas lamps. In the late 1920’s they made the transition to electric lamps. Their lamps were known for their well crafted design as well as the quality of their manufacture. They were consistently sturdier and more substantial than their contemporaries. Very few Art Deco Rembrandt lamps are known today. Those identified are highly stylized and coveted by design enthusiasts. The lamp presented here is certainly unusual and of strong modernist design. This lamp has been restored and refurbished and is in excellent working order. It has been completely disassembled and all parts cleaned and polished.
