Immerse yourself in the vibrant artistry of mid-century Italian design with this ceramic table lamp by Raymor in the style of Marcello Fantoni, Italy circa 1950s. This lamp is a stunning example of the period's fascination with organic forms and the tactile allure of textured finishes.

The lamp's body is a celebration of shape and color, boasting an undulating form that begins with a petrol green glaze at the top. This rich color gradually transitions into a captivating blue textured lava glaze at the bottom, reminiscent of the deep hues found in the Mediterranean Sea. The rippled bottom of the lamp adds a rhythmic dimension to its silhouette.

A white painted stem gracefully leads to the lighting hardware, featuring a brass harp and a coordinating brass cylinder finial that adds a touch of elegance and refinement.

Designed to accommodate one standard light bulb, this lamp is not only a decorative piece but also fully functional, ensuring it is as practical as it is beautiful. The base is marked with the Raymor and an Italy stamp, alongside a illegible model number that whispers the lamp's storied past, making it a collectible item for enthusiasts of mid-century design.

Measuring 28 inches in height with a 6.5-inch diameter, and a base height of 17.5 inches, this lamp is structured to make a statement, whether placed on an end table, a desk, or as a central piece within a curated display of vintage treasures.

Sold sans shade, it allows for personal customization to match your decor. This lamp is more than just a source of light; it is a piece of history, a work of art, and a testament to the innovative design spirit that characterized the golden age of Italian ceramics.
