Mid-Century French Blue Glazed Ceramic and Bronze Urn Table Lamp

$700

About

Rich color and elegant classical details give this vintage urn-form lamp a striking decorative presence. Crafted in France circa 1950, the ceramic body features a luminous mottled glaze in deep cobalt blue, turquoise, and touches of emerald green. Its gently flared neck, rounded shoulders, and tapering form create a refined silhouette inspired by antique European urns.

Decorative bronze mounts frame the ceramic body, including a fitted collar, a banded lower ring, and scrolling foliate handles extending gracefully from each shoulder. The urn rests on a molded circular wooden base with a dark patinated finish, providing an attractive contrast to the vivid blue glaze. Above, a double-light fixture is operated by individual pull chains and finished with a matching dark spherical finial.

The lamp is accompanied by a custom silk shade with softly scalloped sides and coordinating blue-and-gold trim. Perfect for a console, bedside table, or living room end table, the fixture offers both warm illumination and strong sculptural appeal. The lamp is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with a rich patina on the bronze mounts.

Dimensions: 7″ diameter x 25.5″ H, including shade
