Located in Camblanes et Meynac, FR
French ceramic lamp Mid-Century Modern by Albert Thiry, 1960s, era Blin
One beautiful glazed ceramic bedside lamp with an engraved and hand-painted flower decor.
It is a very beautiful work of glaze, soft and silky, all in delicacy. The dark clay is covered with a glaze in the white-chalk and green-water tones loved by the ceramist. The flower motifs are engraved leaving the clay visible under the clear glaze. Ochre-red tones come to warm up the whole.
In very good condition.
Signed under the base.
circa 1960.
h: 28cm (with the lamp shade, 12cm just the lamp base without the socket)
d: 16cm

By Les Argonautes
Located in London, GB
French vintage decorative ceramic wall plaque with three figures, by Les Argonautes, Vallauris, France (circa 1960s).
