Art Nouveau Table Lamp, Poppy Decor, Black Terracotta, "L. Hjort" Denmark, 1920

About the Item

Amazing Art Nouveau earthenware / terracotta table lamp with flower / poppy decorations made in Denmark at "L. Hjorth Terracottafabrik". The lamp is in original vintage condition with socket and shade holder in brass, iron and bakelite. In the 1850s at the island of Bornholm in Denmark the small terracotta factory "L. Hjort" specialized in producing earthenware in the unique "black terracotta" style achieved by firing coal and tar in the ovens simultaneously with the items. The factory had great success internationally, and already by 1880 Hjorth's articles were sold in the big department stores of Paris, London and Berlin, and as far away as in Australia, New York and Sct. Thomas. The factory also participated in the big World Exhibitions in Altona 1869, London 1870 and 1874 as well as New Orleans 1885.
