The first patent for a banker's lamp was filed on 11 May 1909 by Harrison D. McFaddin, and were produced and sold under the brand name Emeralite ("emerald" and "light").

Emeralite lamp shades were produced by the J. Schreiber & Neffen factory located in the city of Rapotín, Moravia.

The banker's lamp continues to be popular in modern times, often used in home offices, libraries, and vintage-inspired interior decor.

Its classic design has made it a staple in environments seeking to evoke a sense of history or professionalism.
