Wedge Ceramic Table Lamp — Unique Work, 2024
By J Schatz Studio
Located in Warren, MI
This one-of-a-kind organic modern ceramic table lamp is hand-built in high-fired stoneware in Detroit and produced as a unique work in 2024. Rooted in contemporary design and architectural restraint, the form explores planar geometry, angle, and structural balance through controlled illumination. The silhouette is defined by a decisive wedge profile — a clean angular mass that feels both grounded and directional. The geometry creates tension between incline and stability, giving the piece a forward presence without excess ornament. It reads as resolved and architectural rather than expressive. High-fired for durability and material depth, the glaze responds naturally to planes and edges, emphasizing transitions and surface variation unique to this work. In daylight, the piece functions as a sculptural object defined by its angled profile. A linen shade crowns the ceramic base, allowing light to radiate upward and outward while softly activating the faceted form below. Illumination remains restrained and atmospheric, reinforcing the structure rather than softening it. Designed and handmade in Detroit by J Schatz...
