About the Item

A gorgeous and rather unusual vintage handmade ceramic stoneware table lamp base made by Bruno Karlsson for EGO, Sweden. This lamp is a classic, elegant and timeless lamp. The shape is simple and it has a contemporary feeling, yet it is the glazing that is making it so special, it has a white base as well as a swirl a warm chocolate brown leading up to a brown top with parts being done with harpsichord glazing which gives a sophisticated look and this will be a centerpiece in any interior setting. It is 25cm (9.84") high including the lamp fitting and around 10cm (3.93") in diameter and in a perfect condition. The price includes free shipping. NOTE: It is has been newly rewired with an electrical plug suitable for Swedish and most of EU standard and it needs an E27 screw bulb and that the lamp is in an excellent condition. Lamp shades are not included. EGO Ego stoneware was a ceramics workshop in Lidköping. The designers and ceramicists who worked there included Tyra Lundgren and Willi Fischer, among others. The factory first focused on household items, but in the 1960s also began to produce art objects, mainly when they hired Bruno Karlsson as one of Sweden's foremost designers. Many of his creations are today highly sought after and appreciated by vintage and retro enthusiasts all over the world.
