About the Item
This is a rare, wonderful and unusual table lamp signed Tye of California and dated 1955. What's unique about this piece is that the pottery is unmistakably by Danish designer Thomas Toft.
The glazed earthenware body plays with high-low relief in geometric patterning in matte white and textured, chalky blackish-brown glazes. The lamp is in very good condition with minor discoloration and burnish marks to the glaze. There are no chips or cracks.
Dimensions with shade, which is not included, are approximately 36" high and the max shade diameter is 16". The ceramic body (including the metal plinth) is 18" high and 12" in diameter--so this is a large and impressive piece of pottery by Toft.
Thomas Toft (1930-2015) established Tofts Keramiske Værkstedin in 1952 Bisserup near Skælskør on Zealand, Denmark. The studio was established in 1957 in Bisserup where he lived and worked for 50 years.
