Each floor lamp is forged, welded, and finished by hand at Wick’s Forge in Salem, New York, using solid steel sourced from mills across North America.
Though the height and proportions of each lamp are consistent, the hand-forged hammer marks create subtle variations across the legs, shaft, and joint that make every piece one of a kind.
The metal is hand-finished with a simple, natural blend of beeswax, linseed, and olive oil — a finish that preserves the warmth of the iron and develops character with time.
Available with a handmade paper shade that softens the light and brings a warm, ambient glow — made in Bedford Park, Illinois.
The lamp’s forged steel joint allows you to fine-tune the angle and height. Each piece is tightened by hand with a solid wingnut—simple, honest engineering that lasts.

A36 Steel is the steel of choice for balancing consistency, workability, and durability. Wick's Forge sources their steel from North American mills.
We've included free UPS ground shipping for the Stissing Floor Lamp, with and without the lampshade.
The core wrought form of the lamp will accommodate any standard lamp hardware - you can change your cord, harp, or fixture at your will.
The lamp is made with solid steel, forged by hand and finished without varnish or synthetic sealers. Here are a few things that may differ from what you’re used to:
The lamp is shaped with heat and hammer strikes, meaning each one is unique and the forge marks are part of the lamp's appeal.
The lamp’s surface is created through a black oxide bath and finished with a mix of raw linseed oil, beeswax, and olive oil which are breathable treatments rather than sealed coatings. It is important not to expose the surface to moisture.
With frequent handling, the steels surface will lighten on the frequently contacted points and remain dark in the recesses. This gradual patina is akin to an old handrail or well-used tool, growing richer over time.
