Product description
This is an original ceramic lamp base by Carli Bauer, produced in Austria during the Mid-Century Modern period of the 1950s–1960s.
The figurative, Asian-inspired design is characteristic of Austrian post-war ceramics and makes this piece a sought-after collector’s item.
The lamp base is signed “Carli Bauer” in the clay and features a beautiful glazed finish with strong sculptural presence. Carli Bauer is known for high-quality Austrian Mid-Century ceramic design, and his lamp bases are today considered design classics.
