Mid-Century Modern Black & White Ceramic Ribbed Bottle-Shaped Table Lamp, 1950s
About the Item
A very dapper and uncommon 1950s bottle-shaped ceramic table lamp with white ribbed body and black tapered neck.
Handsome lines, perfect proportions, and a Truman Capote-approved black and white color scheme call to mind a natty bowtie and tuxedo shirt ensemble. White slightly tapered bottle-shaped body with vertical ribs or fins is topped by a black inverse-tapered neck. Both sections finished in satin glazes bordering on semi-matte that have a super subtle yet sumptuous sheen.
Original brass finish fittings, harp, and finial. Original cord and plug with newer brass finish two-way socket that works great. Bottom fully dressed in what appears to be fresh felt. Ready for a new shade of the buyer’s choosing.
Believed to be of United States origin, though it could possibly be from Denmark or Sweden instead—we’ve seen mid-century ceramic table lamps with a similar look and immaculate execution from those countries as well.
Height listed is to top of socket; height to top of neck is 19.75 inches.

- Hans Grag for Gump’s Hammered Copper and Brass Table Lamp, 1950sBy Hans Grag, GumpsLocated in San Francisco, CAVery uncommon 1950s Hollywood Regency hammered copper & brass tall table lamp custom made exclusively by Hans Grag for Gump’s of San Francisco. Skillfully hand-shaped and hammered copper half-dome cap and gracefully worked copper (or copper-toned brass) staves with brass rod spacers combine to convey a supremely elegant and perfectly-proportioned botanical aesthetic. Very subtle variances in tone and texture provide an added level of sophistication to the nicely muted finish. Hans Grag signature and "Gump’s" stamped into side of base. Brass stem with original brass finial, harp, and socket. Original large pleated black silk drum shade featuring beaded gold brocade and velvet trim is included, though an update would better serve the lamp. Grag Studios—with a decades-long reputation for superbly conceived and crafted decorative metal work—was founded by Hans in 1952 in California, with its retail...Category
