Product description
A rather large and striking vintage ceramic table Lamp by Noomi Backhausen, for Söholm Keramik, Denmark
This piece exemplifies Backhausen's celebrated perforated ceramic technique, featuring a voluptuous shape on a slightly textured surface with carefully composed circular design in the glazing, that create depth and contrast. The pale grey glaze shifts subtly in tone across the surface contrasted with deep blue circular details, enhancing the sculptural quality of the form and lending the piece a refined, architectural presence.
Elegant yet distinctive, the design balances a timeless silhouette with a modern sensibility, making it highly versatile across a range of interiors—from Scandinavian and mid-century modern to contemporary and eclectic settings.
As with all works by Noomi Backhausen, the craftsmanship is exceptional, with meticulous attention to proportion, texture, and finish. Both functional and decorative, this lamp serves as a sophisticated focal point in any space.
