About the Item

This exquisite 1960s table lamp showcases a vibrant majolica-style glaze in deep blues and greens, clearly inspired by the celebrated ceramic works of Bitossi from the same era. It perfectly embodies the spirit of post-war Italian design—a dynamic period characterized by a creative resurgence that melded traditional craftsmanship with modernist innovation. During this transformative era, Italian designers and artisans redefined ceramics by exploring bold colors, organic forms, and expressive glazes, reflecting a nation rebuilding with optimism and artistic freedom. The lamp’s luminous finish and natural color palette evoke the meticulous craftsmanship and artistic vitality synonymous with mid-century Italian ceramics. Ideal for collectors and interiors seeking a bold yet elegant accent, this lamp captures the timeless allure of vintage majolica artistry and the rich heritage of post-war Italian design.

Table Lamp by Ugo Zaccagnini
By Ugo Zaccagnini
Located in Kilmarnock, VA
A beautifully proportioned and sculptural table lamp by Ugo Zaccagnini, featuring a soft robin’s egg blue crackled glaze with subtle tonal variation and surface depth. The gentle craquelure enhances the organic curves of the ceramic body, lending the lamp a tactile quality and a sense of quiet movement. The original rosewood cap and base provide a rich material contrast—dark, refined, and architectural against the delicate surface of the glaze. This interplay of texture and tone reflects the studio’s deep sensitivity to form and finish. Zaccagnini, one of Italy’s most respected 20th-century ceramicists, worked at the intersection of tradition and modernity. Known for his sculptural forms and refined glazes, his work was widely exhibited and retailed through top galleries and luxury decorators in postwar Europe and the United States. This lamp’s silhouette is bold yet fluid—equally at home in a richly layered interior or a clean-lined, organic modernist space. The cool, pale blue makes it a versatile design element: it can act as a subtle pop of color in a neutral room, or as a cool, calming contrast against deeper hues and dark woods. Designers such as Gio Ponti, Billy Baldwin, or Kalef Alaton...
