Max Blumberg began his glass-making factory in the late 19th century, and by 1940 his son Jack founded Fine Art Lamps. He endeavored to gather the finest designers, sculptors, artisans, and decorative artists, many of whose talents had roots in the ancient crafts of Italy where they were born. From the beginning, Fine Art Lamps has been a design leader, creating true works of art innovative designs, beautifully crafted forms of metal, glass, and unique materials with exquisite finishes. In the process, the company developed an artistic standard that has come to symbolize the Fine Lamps name today.
We are passionately devoted to creating fine artistic lighting and innovative studio glass that become the defining features of uniquely designed environments.
