This ceramic wall light, created around 1975 by German artist Walburga Kulz (b. 1931), exemplifies her blend of sculptural design and functional utility. Rare Brutalist Ceramic Wall Lamp by Walburga Külz (Germany, ca. 1970s) Description (English): A unique handcrafted ceramic wall light by German artist Walburga Külz, known for her expressive, sculptural lighting created in the 1960s and 70s. This piece is a striking example of Brutalist ceramic design, where function meets form in a deeply artistic way. Due to its dramatic surface texture, heavy material, and asymmetrical silhouette, this is not just a light—it's a sculptural object with strong decorative presence. About the Artist: Walburga Külz was a German-Dutch ceramicist active during the postwar period, whose work combined the raw, earthy textures of clay with sculptural, functional forms. Her lighting and wall objects reflect the Brutalist and mid-century modern aesthetic. Though relatively under-documented, her works are increasingly sought after by collectors of radical 20th-century ceramics and European studio design. Pieces like this—signed, unique, and in original condition—are exceptionally rare on the market. Brutalist ceramics have become highly collectible due to their handmade character, bold textures, and raw artistic expression. This wall lamp exemplifies that movement and is a true collector’s piece for lovers of vintage design, 1960s interiors, and sculptural lighting. tem Details: Condition: Excellent vintage condition with only minimal signs of wear.
