Founded in 1885, the Handel Lamp Company was the preeminent maker of reverse-painted lamps, in which the shades’ interiors were hand-painted. Handel produced many lamps inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement and Art Nouveau. These styles began to wane after World War I, resulting in the closing of Handel in 1936.
