Thabur Art Deco Lamps
The Hague-based company THABUR produced these globe lamps between 1920 and 1949. In 1925 the manufacturing company had only 5 employees. Thabur was at that time located on Annastraat in The Hague. The Amsterdam-born Jozeph Blik became director of Thabur in 1925, which led to rapid growth of the company. By 1931 there were already 50 people employed. In 1938 more than 400 people worked there. Thabur glass is sturdy glass. Consequently, these beautiful unique lamps are still in great condition after 100 years.
Thabur and the variation
Thabur lamps are recognizable by their often round shape, in which the glass is screwed into a screw-threaded edge. Historically, these Thabur screw-edges were made of Bakelite. Thabur ceiling lamps with a Bakelite edge are rarer and therefore more valuable, especially for people who place value on authenticity.
