About the Item

Jean Roger is one of the World’s most renowned ceramicists, his career began in 1947 after the end of the second world war, when he moved to Paris and established his first workshop. In 1953 he started to focus his prodigious talent upon creating pieces that were influenced and inspired by the natural world, it was after this time that he created his famous ceramic Frog, Palm Trees and Pineapples, and then the Iconic ‘lettuce’, which took the form of a tureen and the exceptional table lamp, which we have in our collection. His list of famous clients included Dior, Coco Chanel, Jansen, Sacks and Jackie Kennedy, who personally visited Jean Roger’s studio to place her own personal orders. Even the Shah of Iran was a fan of Roger’s masterful ceramics, and engaged the artist to create thousands of candle holders for the reception tables of the Persepolis Night. The images speak for themselves of the talent of Jean Roger and the lifelike qualities he bestowed upon his pieces. This item is in exceptional condition, with only one tiny abrasion to the glaze at the back. A rare opportunity to own an iconic piece by one of the world’s most influential and coveted ceramic artists. Height 56cm x Width 40cm (with shade). Lamp alone is Height 35cm x Width 28cm. Cabbage is 24cm Tall. THE LIGHT IS WIRED AND IN FULL WORKING ORDER, BUT AS WITH ALL OUR LIGHTING WE WOULD ALWAYS SUGGEST IT IS FITTED AND TESTED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN
