An organic and Brutalist style Butterly table lamp. No chips or cracks. Easily retired for all regions. Bernard Rooke (born 1938) is a British artist and studio potter. Rooke has exhibited his "Brutalist" ceramics and painting both in the UK and abroad with work in many collections both public and private including the Victoria and Albert Museum, Cleveland Museum of Art, Nuffield Foundation, Röhsska Museum in Sweden and the Trondheim Kunstmuseum in Norway. Bernard Rooke attended Ipswich School of Art studying painting and lithography before going on to study at Goldsmiths College of Art. It was while studying here that he decided to take up pottery. Although unfamiliar with this craft and tradition, he found that working with clay provided new opportunities for freedom of interpretation and creativity. In 1960 Rooke set up his first pottery in Forest Hill in South London along with Alan Wallwork. It was a very small room with enough space for a small electric kiln. He was initially using mainly hand building, coiling, blocking and slabbing techniques. While researching ideas, he was supporting himself by part-time lecturing at London University, Goldsmiths College and St Mary's College. In addition, Rooke's membership of 'The Craftsman Potters' Association' enabled him to show his work in a shop in Carnaby Street in London. In 1967, both the need for a larger working space and becoming disillusioned with living in London spurred Rooke into moving out of the city and to an old mill building in Swilland in Suffolk. Rooke wanted to widen the range of work so as to become more commercial. With the birth of his son, Aaron, and much needed work to be done on the mill, it was important to be able to make a living. In 1968, the Grand Metropolitan Hotel commissioned Rooke to make 120 standard lamps, 120 table lamps as well as a 24 foot long ceramic mural and another 9 foot high, which incorporated interior lighting. The money from the commission helped to pay for much needed restoration work on the mill. By the 1970s, a gallery space was opened in the windmill and run by Susan Rooke, Bernard's wife, selling work to locals and tourists as well as to American airmen based nearby. The vision for Mill Gallery was beginning to develop and alongside this a reputation was building bringing in a good source of income. Sons Aaron and Felix were becoming more involved with the running of the pottery, giving Bernard more time to develop new ideas and designs and more time to continue with his painting. In 2004, the Rooke family decided not to sell to the public through the gallery anymore and close the pottery to concentrate more on painting and printmaking. In 2017 Bernard's lighting was featured in the Exhibition: “Glass, Light, Paint & Clay” at the Peterborough Museum and Art Gallery. The exhibition featured four artists: Bernard Rooke, John Maltby...

A compact early 20th century Anatolian terracotta oil jar from Western Turkey, hand-thrown and smoke-fired, now converted into a sculptural table lamp. This vessel was used for storing olive oil or water, with its narrower profile and elongated body designed for practical, everyday use. The surface is heavily marked by the firing process, with deep blackened areas formed through direct exposure to flame in the kiln. These sit against warmer terracotta tones, creating a strong, almost charred contrast across the body. The effect is more graphic than typical, giving the piece a darker, more atmospheric presence. Subtle throwing lines remain visible beneath the surface, grounding it in its handmade origin. Now reworked as a vintage terracotta lamp...

An early 20th-century Anatolian terracotta storage pot from Western Turkey, hand-thrown and traditionally fired, now converted into a sculptural table lamp. This vessel was used for storing olive oil or water, with its rounded upper body and gently tapering base designed for everyday use and stability. The surface is left largely unglazed, showing a natural terracotta finish with visible throwing lines running horizontally across the body. These subtle ridges, along with small markings and tonal variation, reflect the handmade process and years of use. The clay has developed a soft, even patina, with darker areas formed through firing and age, giving the piece a quiet, understated depth. Now reworked as a vintage terracotta lamp...

A large early 20th century Armenian terracotta storage vessel, hand-thrown and traditionally open-fired, now converted into a sculptural table lamp. This form would have originally been used for storing olive oil or water, with its broad shoulder, defined neck, and tapering base designed for both durability and capacity. The surface carries a rich open-fired finish, with natural variation across deep terracotta, burnt umber, and darker smoked areas created through direct exposure to flame in the kiln. A subtle banding line at the shoulder marks the transition in form, while the body retains visible traces of its hand-thrown construction beneath the surface. The overall silhouette is strong and balanced, with a slightly narrower base that gives the piece a refined verticality. Now reworked as a vintage terracotta lamp...

A large early 20th century Anatolian terracotta amphora from Western Turkey, hand-thrown and traditionally open-fired, now converted into a sculptural table lamp. This two-handled vessel was originally used for storing water, oil, or grains, with its wide shoulder and tapered base designed for both capacity and stability. The surface shows a naturally varied, open-fired finish, with tonal shifts across warm terracotta, deep brown, and darker smoked areas where the pot was exposed directly to flame in the kiln. The upper section carries heavier firing marks, creating contrast and depth, while the horizontal throwing lines remain visible beneath the surface, grounding the piece in its handmade origin. Now reworked as a vintage terracotta lamp...

A striking vintage Anatolian terracotta pot lamp, hand-formed and smoke-fired in Western Turkey during the 20th century. This sculptural clay vessel was originally used for storing water or grains, with its wide shoulder and tapered base designed for both stability and volume. Over time, the surface has developed a rich natural patina, with tonal variation created through traditional smoke-firing techniques, giving the piece its deep, earthy character. Now thoughtfully converted into a table lamp, this vintage clay pot lamp retains its original form while offering a functional, timeless presence. The softly weathered terracotta surface, subtle markings, and organic shape make it particularly suited to rustic interiors, Mediterranean-inspired spaces, English farmhouse settings, or more minimal, monastic environments where texture and form take precedence. Fitted with antique bronze hardware, the metalwork will continue to develop a natural patina over time, complementing the aged surface of the pot. The lamp is complete with a 2m antique gold cable and UK plug, with EU or US conversion available on request. This is a one-of-a-kind vintage terracotta lamp...

This is a very unique table lamp with a nice shade of green glaze. Its a higher piece than usual. This is a real lamp not a vase that was transformed later. You can see the glaze around the cable hole on the detail picture. A signature under the base. Made by hand by Master ceramicist Eva Stæhr-Nielsen at famous Danish Saxbo atelier. The lamp shade (34.4 x H24.2cm) received a new white stripped cotton (by Audrey). The feet (34 x 13cm diameter) was professionally cleaned by a craftsman (her name is Sophie). Eva Stæhr-Nielsen a grandi dans un environnement créatif. Le père, qui était le fils d'un propriétaire terrien et avait une formation de libraire, a organisé certains des premiers voyages touristiques au Danemark et est devenu plus tard le chef de l'agence de voyage danoise. L'oncle était le peintre Johannes Wilhjelm. Sa mère a été l'une des premières femmes à fréquenter l'école d'art pour femmes de l'Académie des arts, mais elle n'a pas travaillé comme artiste après son mariage. Eva Stæhr-Nielsen a su très tôt qu'elle voulait être céramiste, mais ses parents pensaient qu'elle devrait passer un examen de fin d'études, et c'est pourquoi elle est venue à l'école Marie Kruse. Cependant, elle n'a pas terminé et en 1930, elle est entrée à la nouvelle école des artisans, située dans le pavillon du Musée d'art et d'industrie. Ici, elle a rencontré le professeur central de la classe de céramique, le sculpteur de 15 ans Olaf S-N., qui a eu une grande influence sur sa vie et son développement artistique. Ils se sont mariés en 1935 et au fil des ans ont eu une vie fructueuse avec une inspiration mutuelle. En 1932, Eva Stæhr-Nielsen entre dans l'atelier Saxbo de Nathalie Krebs, un atelier devenu leader non seulement au Danemark, mais dans toute l'Europe dans la production de grès...
