Excepcional Unique Table Lamp Porcelain Interior Light Museum-quality
Located in Mombuey, Zamora
Museum-quality
A unique and very special piece purchased in Spain, but it could have come from somewhere else, as it bears no resemblance to the lamps produced in that area, neither in design nor workmanship. It's a higher-quality piece than average. I've never seen one of such quality. In terms of design, texture, and color, this lamp is superior to those made in Spain, specifically in Manises. However, it could have been made elsewhere in Spain, as many porcelain factories still existed in the early 20th century, especially in northern Spain, but they didn't make lamps. I've been looking for a similar one for many years and have only seen one. I've seen a similar design by a German artist, but I can't identify it. It's in excellent condition, like new. It's likely a designer piece, but I couldn't say who made it.
It's an exceptional piece; the pictures don't do it justice.
It's large, much larger than average. When illuminated internally and allowing light to escape through the round holes in the design, it creates an exceptional image and atmosphere. It is undoubtedly a signature piece or a piece of art, surely designed by an artist who worked in the Manises workshops or in any Spanish workshop, or someone bought it and brought it here.
Interior lighting, and the lower part of the lamp. The uz comes out through the holes and it is spectacul
