One of the most common questions new and experienced collectors ask is, "What is my lamp worth?" This price guide is designed to help answer that question.
Values below are based on recent auction results, dealer sales, and collector marketplace activity, and reflect current market conditions rather than historical price guide figures, which can become outdated quickly as collector interest and lamp availability shift over time. Prices are given as a range, from lamps in poor finish (heavy wear, chips, or damage) to those in excellent finish (little to no wear, original parts, and strong original color).
Please keep in mind that a lamp's actual value depends on several factors beyond finish alone: rarity of the color or style, completeness of the burner and other original parts, regional demand, and overall condition of the glass or metal. Reproduction and later-production lamps can closely resemble more valuable early models, so we've noted styles where collectors should be especially careful ("beware of new lamps") to avoid confusing a common piece with a rare one.
This guide is updated periodically to reflect current market trends. It is intended as a general reference for buying, selling, and insurance purposes, not as a formal appraisal.
The price guides below are organized into tabs by time frame, based on when the lamps were originally sold. Please click on the tab for the time period you'd like to browse.
