Mining Lamps

On this page, you’ll find our collection of original mining lamps, celebrated for their rugged construction and distinctive industrial look. Traditionally crafted from steel, brass, or a combination of both, these lamps were originally designed as safety lamps for miners working deep underground.

Their function was as vital as their design: if the flame inside the lamp rose higher, it signaled an increased presence of methane gas (firedamp) in the air — a critical warning to miners of potential danger.

Today, these mining lamps are incredibly atmospheric to use and stand out with their unique industrial aesthetic, making them perfect for collectors, vintage décor enthusiasts, or anyone looking for a statement piece with history.
