AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Vintage signed lamp base “Rut Wud” – Red glazed ceramic – France, 1970s

Very beautiful vintage ceramic lamp base in bright red glaze, with organic design typical of French productions in the 1970s, in the spirit of Vallauris workshops.

The shape is particularly elegant, with a broad, flattened body giving it a strong decorative presence. The glossy red enamel offers gorgeous reflections and perfectly catches the light, making the piece as striking when lit as when unlit.

The base is incised signature under the base “Rut Wud” (reading to be confirmed), indicating an artisanal workshop collaboration.

The base is equipped with its original electrical system with a switch on the cord. The lamp has been tested and works perfectly (see photos in operation).
