Item Description:
Up for auction is a magnificent, statement-scale Vintage Studio Pottery Table Lamp Base, standing a commanding 29 inches tall. This heavy ceramic piece features a highly tactile, egg-shaped silhouette with deep, hand-carved floral and fan-leaf relief elements around the lower half.
The glaze work is exceptional: a thick, frothy light grey and tan slip applied over an earthy brown underglaze, perfectly capturing the coveted 1970s Brutalist/organic modern aesthetic.
Condition Report: Excellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks, structural repairs, or hairline fractures. The textured glaze finish remains entirely intact.
Functionality: Original vintage wiring has been tested and works perfectly. Comes equipped with the standard harp setup—ready for your choice of a large drum, linen, or burlap shade.
Provenance: Sourced in Ontario. Unsigned studio work reminiscent of European art pottery (Bernard Rooke style) and Canadian mid-century stoneware.
Please see all photos for details on the incredible texture and relief carving. Bidding starts low—don’t miss out on adding this stunning retro centerpiece to your space!
