Mid 20th century danish ceramic table lamp with rich oxblood glaze.

About the Item

This mid-20th-century Danish ceramic table lamp is a striking example of the artistry and craftsmanship that defined Scandinavian design during this period. Its rich oxblood glaze, characterized by deep, lustrous red tones, adds a bold yet refined visual presence, showcasing the sophisticated glazing techniques for which Danish ceramics are renowned. The glaze’s subtle variations in tone and texture reflect the hand-crafted nature of the piece, imbuing it with character and depth. ( This lamp is rewired with a beige fabric cord with a US or Eu standard plug.) The lamp’s form balances solidity and elegance, with a robust, wide base that grounds the piece and a slender, elongated neck that adds height and grace. This harmonious interplay of proportions demonstrates an understanding of both functional and aesthetic design, creating a lamp that is as visually compelling as it is practical. The smooth, flowing transition between the base and neck enhances the lamp’s organic quality, reflecting the mid-century Scandinavian emphasis on simplicity and natural forms. As a functional object, this table lamp merges utility with artistic expression, making it a versatile piece suited to a variety of interiors. Its oxblood glaze and sculptural form embody the timeless appeal of Danish ceramics, celebrating the tradition of elevating everyday objects into works of art.
