Mica Lamp Company

Turn-of-the-century American Lighting design and craftsmanship is available today from the Mica Lamp Co. Mica Lamp Co. follows the same formula as the original craftsman. Many parts are made of solid copper, assembled with hand driven copper rivets and finished with a rich natural patina.
Mica shade panels are the same natural materials used by the Arts and Crafts master lamp makers. Mineral mica flakes, combined with organic shellac, make each mica shade unique with its variations of mineral deposit patterns and color tones. The famous San Francisco coppersmith Dirk Van Erp, was the first to make these copper lamps in 1910. And now, Mica Lamp has introduced more exciting lighting product lines.

Storybook

Once upon a time circa 1920, a Hollywood studio artist built a cottage with cozy corners, quirky angles, sway back roof cape, half timbering and rough cast stucco with inlaid stone and clinker bricks. Throughout the U.S., others picked up this theatrical fancy with nursery-rhyme themes. Storybook style is the outgrowth of European period revival styles: Spanish Colonial, Old English Cotswold Cottage, Rural French, Norman Village.

Storybook houses have added elements of exaggeration, humor…pure whimsy. Turn on a Storybook Lantern and imagine skipping with Hansel & Gretel in a medieval castle.

Vintage Black Iron

Authentic 1920's Styles

Cataloged herein is Mica Lamp Co's collection of authentic forged iron lighting fixtures. Popularly known as Country Cottage, Tudor, Spanish Revival, and Old Hollywood. All are authentically detailed in forged iron, and fire burned to an authentic black finish in their California shop. Construction is heavy in weight, with abundant hammer marks and rivet fasteners. Their Garden Fixtures (U.L. wet) are finished with a durable all-weather Bronze Coat.

The authentic BLACK IRON FINISH is achieved by using the centuries old process of applying a high heat flame directly to the surface of the wrought iron. This "burned" or "fire finish" is naturally uneven; colors range from gray to black to blue and red. Chipping or peeling is natural and part of the "old world" or "antique-aged" appearance.
