Description from the seller

1960s Roberto Rigon Bertoncello Ceramic Table Lamp – Sculptural Organic Design

This exceptional ceramic table lamp by Roberto Rigon Bertoncello is a striking example of Italian design from the 1960s. Its bold organic silhouette, featuring a sculptural open arch, reflects the innovative aesthetic that made Bertoncello one of the leading names in Italian artistic ceramics during the mid-century period.

Finished in a rich glossy caramel-brown glaze with subtle tonal variations, the lamp showcases outstanding ceramic craftsmanship and a beautifully balanced sculptural form. Equally impressive whether illuminated or displayed as a decorative object, its biomorphic design embodies the elegance and creativity of 1960s Italian modernism. Manufactured in Italy, it is an authentic vintage piece that will appeal to collectors of design, ceramics, and iconic lighting.

The lamp is in very good vintage condition, displaying only minor signs of age consistent with careful use. The ceramic body is free from visible cracks or repairs. The electrical system has been tested and is in working order at the time of listing.

Dimensions:

Height: 31 cm (12.2 in)

Width: 18 cm (7.1 in)

Depth: 12 cm (4.7 in)


A highly decorative and collectible creation by Roberto Rigon Bertoncello, this rare sculptural lamp is a superb addition to any collection of Italian mid-century design. Its timeless organic form and warm glazed finish make it an elegant statement piece for both vintage and contemporary interiors.
