A large vintage table lamp by T. Lanza, constructed from glazed ceramic with metal details, dating to circa 1960–1970, Italian origin, in good vintage condition and in working order, with a height of 78 cm and a width/depth of 25 cm, and supplied without a lampshade.
Description from the seller
An exceptional large vintage table lamp by T. Lanza, made of painted and glazed ceramic.
The lamp features a remarkably large, tapering ceramic body with a rich and colorful abstract decoration. The surface consists of various shades of green, pink, blue, cream, yellow and earth tones, combined with black contour lines and geometric motifs. The high-gloss black bands and details give the piece a strong graphic character.
On the black decorative band the lamp is clearly signed “T. Lanza.”
The ceramic surface features expressive, hand-crafted-looking decoration and has the appearance of Italian design ceramics from the second half of the 20th century. Similar T. Lanza ceramic lamps are offered in the vintage/design trade as Italian pieces.
The exact place of production and dating of this particular piece are not documented, which is why the lamp is offered as presumably Italian, circa 1960–1980.
The combination of its exceptional size, the colorful abstract painting, and the clear signature makes this a striking decorative object for lovers of vintage Italian ceramics and mid-century/postmodern design.
Condition
The lamp is in good vintage condition, appropriate for its age and use. There are a few small signs of wear and glaze damage visible, including small chips along the black edge. The ceramic base otherwise shows typical signs of aging. See the photos for a full impression of the condition.
The item comes without a lampshade.
