About the Item

This beautifully designed Mid-Century Modernist ceramic table lamp, crafted in France circa 1950, is an exceptional example of the era's dedication to combining artistic expression with functionality. The lamp’s ceramic base showcases elegant geometric umber motifs—rich earthen tones that use as a guide the incised carved surface, arranged in striking patterns that evoke the clean yet bold aesthetics central to mid-century design. Further enhancing the piece is its organic cutout detailing, which adds both visual intrigue and an artistic sculptural element. These cutouts cleverly allow light to filter through and interact with the geometric motifs, creating stunning patterns of shadow and illumination when the lamp is lit. This dynamic interplay between material and light brings an organic warmth and a sense of movement to the design. The lamp’s combination of modernist geometry and organic forms is a hallmark of mid-century design, where function seamlessly converges with artistry. Compact yet commanding, it is well-suited for spaces such as a living room, bedroom, or study where subtle sophistication is sought. Styling brilliantly in a wide array of spaces and settings, from Mid-Century Modernist to Contemporary and Minimal Interiors. Newly rewired to American Standards, this lamp accommodates one edison base and one candelabra base bulb, achieving up to 160 watts of light. Fitted with a custom Gallery shade, and in Excellent Vintage Condition. France, Circa 1950 Dimensions: Height: 37.5" x Diameter of Shade: 24" Diameter of Body: 18"
