About the Item
A captivating ceramic table lamp dating from the mid to late 1930s, featuring a sprayed stenciled underglaze beneath a clear glaze that gives the surface a luminous, almost enamel-like glow reminiscent of copper finishes. The sprayed underglaze technique, utilizing spray paint—a relatively modern invention of the early 20th century—allowed artisans to achieve subtle gradients and uniform color application that were revolutionary for ceramic decoration at the time.
This innovative method imbues the piece with depth and vibrancy, evoking a vintage tropical aesthetic that adds warmth and character to any interior. While the lamp lacks maker’s marks beneath the base, its distinctive finish and design speak to skilled artisanal work from the pre-WWII era, making it a rare and stylish vintage find.
