About Online Antique Shop

Online Antique Shop is a privately curated destination for fine antiques and decorative arts from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. While antique lamps and American art glass remain a central focus, our collection extends to select examples of period furniture, Fenton and other American art glass, decorative objects, and related collectibles chosen for their quality, originality, and historical significance.

Our offerings are drawn from decades of personal collecting and study. Each piece is hand-selected by a longtime collector with over 30 years of experience specializing in antique lighting, American art glass, and period decorative arts. We place strong emphasis on authenticity, original components, correct period construction, and overall presentation—ensuring every item meets the standards expected by knowledgeable collectors.

The lamp collection features parlor and banquet lamps from respected American makers such as The Consolidated Lamp & Glass Company and The Pittsburgh Lamp, Brass & Glass Company, including rare patterns, desirable colorways, and museum-quality forms that are increasingly difficult to source. These pieces represent a particularly important chapter in American decorative arts and glassmaking.

Beyond lighting, we seek out complementary antiques that reflect the same values: honest condition, period-correct materials, and enduring craftsmanship. Whether glass, furniture, or decorative objects, each item is selected for its ability to stand on its own as a historical artifact rather than a purely decorative accessory.

We believe antiques are more than objects—they are tangible connections to craftsmanship, design, and daily life of another era. Transparency and education are central to our approach, and we welcome inquiries. Additional photographs, detailed videos, and condition discussions are always available upon request.

While the collection continues to evolve, our mission remains consistent: to place exceptional historical pieces into appreciative homes, where they can be preserved, studied, enjoyed, and passed on.
