About the Item
A richly hand-painted French Delft-style ceramic table lamp (c.1900–1920) with a new blue velvet shade — a vibrant antique accent for Chinoiserie, French Country, or eclectic interiors; newly wired with a U.S. plug and ready to use.
Meticulously handcrafted into a table lamp by Amitābha Studio in Amsterdam, this one-of-a-kind piece is made from an early 20th-century French faience vase (c.1900–1920) in the Delft-revival style. The ceramic base displays exuberant hand-painted decoration—vivid birds, scrolling foliage, and stylized florals in cobalt blue, burnt orange, golden yellow, and green—set against a softly aged, tin-glazed white ground.
Attributed to the Desvres ateliers and bearing the characteristic pseudo-Delft “LF” mark, the vase reflects the period’s fascination with Dutch Golden Age ceramics. Makers such as Géo Martel revived 17th-century Delft motifs with distinctive French flair: richer palettes, denser ornament, and a painterly, almost textile-like surface. This lamp captures that synthesis beautifully—ornate yet warm, historical yet lively.
To complement the rich polychrome base, it has been paired with a custom slate-blue velvet lampshade made in a Dutch atelier. The plush texture and deep color bring a modern counterpoint to the ornate decoration, while the gold fabric cord provides an elegant finishing touch.
The transformation into a lamp was done entirely non-invasively, preserving the ceramic’s integrity.
With its vibrant palette and classic silhouette, this lamp sits comfortably in Chinoiserie, French Country, Bohemian, or eclectic settings—bringing atmosphere, craftsmanship, and a touch of Old World artistry to any room.
About Géo Martel
Georges Martel (Géo Martel) produced high-quality Delft-revival ceramics in Desvres from circa 1900 through the 1930s–40s. His work is recognized for its historical fidelity, nuanced brushwork, and richly layered palettes. Martel’s pieces—especially those bearing pseudo-Delft marks—are considered among the most collectible in the French Delft-revival tradition.

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.
