This Victorian table lamp originates from 1880, created from a Burmantofts Faience art pottery double gourd vase with a vibrant turquoise blue monochrome glaze. The ceramic body displays impressed sgraffito star flower decorations beneath the glossy finish, paired with handcrafted bronzed metal mounts and a polished brass lamp fitting at the top. The entire assembly rests upon a circular metal stand with small curved feet. Measuring 65 cm high and 30 cm wide, the lamp makes a striking addition to interior spaces. Position this piece on a sideboard top to introduce a splash of bright colour and period character to a living room, hallway, or study. The combination of glazed ceramic and metallic hardware suits maximalist wonderland interiors or traditional eclectic settings, providing both ambient lighting and a sculptural decorative accent. Its bold profile and rich surface texture draw the eye while integrating seamlessly into curated home displays.

Burmantofts Faience was produced by the Wilcock & Co pottery in Leeds during the late nineteenth century, gaining renown for architectural ceramics and decorative art wares featuring colourful glazes.

These pieces consist of molded or wheel-turned terracotta or white earthenware, coated in translucent monochrome or majolica-style glazes, and fitted with brass or bronze electrical mounts.

Authentic items typically feature impressed marks on the underside, including the letters BF or BURMANTOFTS FAIENCE, along with numerical shape codes and distinctive monochrome glazes.

A vibrant ceramic table lamp functions well as a focal accent on a neutral console table, sideboard, or desk, complemented by a tailored fabric lampshade to balance the glossy finish.

Dust the ceramic body regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the glaze surface or corrode metal fittings.
