Martz / Marshall Studios Ceramic Table Lamp, Matte White Glaze

About the Item

WHAT IS IT? — This signed Martz Model 41 lamp comes in a matte white / light gray glaze. The tall ceramic body gives way to a thin, tapered walnut neck and the whole ensemble is capped off with a reproduction Martz walnut finial. This model of lamp is one of the earliest designs from the husband and wife team of Gordon and Jane Martz, first appearing in the 1952 catalog and continuously produced through the entirety of the Martz's time at Marshall Studios. DIMENSIONS — Ceramic body: 14.75” H x 5” diameter Overall: 28.75” H x 15” diameter CONDITION — The lamp body is in outstanding vintage condition. Lamp hardware, harp, cord and shade have been replaced with new materials. MARTZ / MARSHALL STUDIOS 101 — Jane Marshall—whose grandmother founded Marshall Studios in 1922—married Gordon Martz in 1951, a year before the couple graduated from New York’s Alfred University. They returned to Veedersburg, Indiana to work in the family business, bringing with them a passion for contemporary hand-designed stoneware. The Martz's work transformed Marshall Studios. What had been a lampshade manufacturing company became a hotbed of handcrafted modern lamps and accessories. Martz lamp bases were slip-cast for mass production and later decorated by hand using techniques such as incising, dipping, and brushing to create a variety of patterns and colors. Martz lamps have been featured in the Museum of Modern Art, a growing number of private collections and are the darling of the French modernist auction scene.
