Bjorn Wiinblad (Danish,1918-2006)

A Pair of Large Textured Ceramic Lamps
Mid 20th century
Painted ceramic
Unmarked
58 inches (147.3 cm) tall

Bjorn Wiinblad sometimes meticulously used the techniques of thick paint with geometric designs in crafting some of his larger pieces. In these two 58-inch ceramic lamps, Wiinblad lays in heavy paint and works circles, polygons and diagonal lines throughout the large bases of the lamps. He takes a more subtle brush to the turned necks of the lamps and finishes the pieces with a heavy enamel. While shiny and bright, the underlying texture is rough and dark when viewed up close. Fitted with modern dual electrical sockets, each lamp is situated on a square brass base.
