Dutch Delft Faience Blue and White Chinoiserie Baluster Vase Mounted as a Lamp
Located in Kittery Point, ME
Late 17th Century Dutch Delft Faience Blue and White Chinoiserie Baluster Vase Mounted as a Lamp and newly electrified.
Decorated in imitation of a Chinese Ming vase with a sage, rocks and vegetation, mounted on a wood base.
The dimensions noted include the lampshade and electrical fittings. The vase as mounted in wood is approximately 10in. high and 6in. diameter.
The arrival in Western Europe of the first shiploads of Chinese porcelain, lacquerware, ivory and silk in the 17th century stimulated interest in China, or Cathay, as it was then called. Europeans soon began copying the Chinese artworks and decorative objects. These decorative arts inspired by China, which enjoyed their heyday in the late 17th, 18th and early 19th centuries, are known as chinoiserie.

Blue and White Chinoiserie Ceramic Table Lamp, Dutch Delftware, Vintage
By Delft
Located in AMSTERDAM, NL
This blue and white Chinoiserie ceramic table lamp features a vintage Dutch Delftware style vase with sculptural ribbing paired with a custom Chinoiserie lampshade, blending mid-century design with traditional Dutch ceramic heritage. The authentic Velsen pottery vase has been transformed into functional lighting that celebrates both Dutch and Asian decorative arts.
The vase base displays distinctive vertical ribbing in white glaze characteristic of mid-20th century Dutch pottery. Its classic ginger jar silhouette exemplifies the Delfts Wit style—white glazed Delftware that developed alongside the more famous blue and white tradition. When illuminated, the smooth glaze creates beautiful ambient light diffusion.

Carcel 19th Century Petroleum Lamp on Canton Vase
Located in Marseille, FR
Lamp said to Carcel system mounted on China vase in Canton XIXth century. Bronze frame. This Carcel mechanism bears the name of its inventor Guillaume Carcel who, in 1800, developed his oil lamp (of rapeseed, for example) comprising a suction-repressing pump driven by a clockwork motor, which ensured the constant supply of the wick. The tank is no longer on the side: it is now under the burner. This floor lamp has a cylindrical wick burner and a movable glass holder to adjust the flame. The glass-chimney is throttled at the level of the flame. The Carcel lamp, deemed expensive and fragile, was reserved for a wealthy clientele. His widow and his son-in-law Mr. Zier, still held in 1821, the workshops and the shop at 8 rue de l'Arbre-Sec in Paris. This very expensive lamp is very fragile and was once considered a luxury model. Dimension 68 cm in height and 20 cm in diameter decorated with trees and flowers. This system is generally found on sheet metal lamps...

Alfredo Santarelli Pair of White Reticulated Majolica Table Lamps, 1940s-1950s
Located in Clifton Springs, NY
Sculptural majolica lamps feature complex hand-sculpted reticulated bodies with 4 vertical segments; two narrower segments are composed around the central medallions of Sun God face, surrounded by abstract geometric pattern, and two wider segments consist of complex lattice work, influenced by Art Deco and Renaissance styles. Minimal elongated shape of the lamps balances highly textured reticulated designs, and the choice of white glaze adds a Modernist touch to the pieces. The soft Blanc de Chine color scheme is reminiscent of Nancy Meyers aesthetic.
The lamps are mounted on brass bases with brass fixtures; they are signed by the artist on the inner rims of the ceramic bodies. The ceramic parts were acquired from the importing warehouse that operated in 1940s-1970s; they were stored unused, as old new stock, for at least 50 years, before finally being wired. It is quire rare to find a pair of lamps by an important Italian ceramic artist of early 20th century; we are excited to be able to offer another pair of white majolica lamps by Alfredo Santarelli in different shape in a separate listing.
The lamps are fully operational with the new brass single turn knob sockets, wired for US 110v, standard polarized plugs. The ceramics are in good vintage condition with some age-appropriate signs of storage wear on the glaze that are not detracting from the overall quality of the pieces, and are shown in the pictures. The issues can be corrected professionally at discretion of the customer; we chose to not restore the ceramic parts to preserve the original condition and the vintage charm of the lamps.
Alfredo Santarelli (1874-1957) was born in Gualdo Tadino, Italy; he is considered one of the most important Italian ceramic artists of the 20th century. His talent in drawing and his mastery in the tin glazing technique (lusterware) won him a large number of golden medals in International and Italian ceramic exhibitions. His excellent portraits and classic subjects are prized collectors’ items, but he also interpreted Islamic, Liberty and Art Deco designs and shapes with great originality. In the second half of the 20’s his art evolved in line with the contemporary trends.
Santarelli started his career in the pottery studio of Paolo Rubboli...
