Product description
Mid-Century Gems in Pairs – Upcycled Ceramic Lamps from Wächtersbach These two exceptional ceramic lamps were crafted from very rare vases by the renowned Wächtersbach manufactory – founded in 1832 in Hesse, Germany, and known for its vibrant glazes, geometric forms, and bold design. The shapes of these two vases likely date back to the 1960s/70s and showcase the typical design of that era: organic silhouettes and glossy surfaces. These vases are extremely rare, and finding them as a pair – acquired from different sources – is a rare find with significant collector value. During the upcycling process, the objects were handled with care, and the lamps can be easily converted back into vases without damage. Custom-made plug-in solutions were used, and the vases are sealed at the top with brass plates. The wiring is routed directly into the E27 socket via a brass outlet sleeve on the back of the lamp. ` ... The vases' origin from the Wächtersbach manufactory is documented by markings on the base of both vases and a sticker on the larger vase – see photos. Two sizes – one style: Large lamp: Height of base without socket: 46 cm, total height with shade: 95 cm, base diameter: 14 cm The vase is weighted with sand for stability. The wiring is external, exiting through a socket below the base (see photo 11). It features a green textile cable, color-coordinated with the base, a Europlug, a toggle switch, and a new E27 socket. Condition: very good. Price per piece: €440 Smaller lamp: Height of base without socket: 30 cm, total height with shade: 65 cm, base diameter: 10 cm. Also weighted with sand for stability. Features and technology are the same as the larger lamp. Condition: very good. Individual price: €320 Lampshades: Both lamps feature cylindrical shades made of sturdy cotton. The densely packed floral pattern in muted olive, pink, red, and purple is reminiscent of pointillist painting. When switched on, it creates an atmospheric, warm light with depth and luminosity. Fabric: slightly translucent, colorfast. Large shade: Ø 30 cm x H 48 cm Small shade: Ø 25 cm x H 33 cm Reduced set price for both lamps with shades: €760.
