Presenting a gorgeous and extremely rare early 20 century American Dedham pottery oxblood & gilt bronze table lamp of medium proportions.
In the shape of a lidded Chinese ginger jar/urn, heavily influenced by Chinese design with gilt bronze mounts and base in the Chinese style.
Classic oxblood or 'Sang de Boeuf' pottery.
Impressive and imposing!
From circa 1920 and we believe American made, probably by the Hugh C. Robertson for Dedham Pottery. The fittings are by Hubbell Incorporated.
From our research, Dedham worked closely with Hubbell in supplying electrical components for their lamps. Due to the proven aging of the piece from its provenance, coupled with the fact that in the 1920s Dedham were the main US makers of Oxblood Pottery and added to the Hubbell fittings, we are confident that this is a Dedham piece but we cannot find any marks.
Part of the Lida Calvert Hall-Obenchain/McMillan/Godwin collection from the 1920s and 1930s.
When we re-wired the smaller of the 3 lamps we have in this collection we discovered the Hubbell label on the inside of the base of the lamp (see photos).
The lamp has 2 bulbs which each has a patented Hubbell toggle/chain switch.
Bone and ball finial.
Extendable arm, for height adjustment.
The shade is new and for display purposes only and not included in the sale.
Fully working condition.
Highly rare, important & collectible, near mint condition!
The Dedham Pottery, which operated in Dedham, Massachusetts, between 1896 and 1943, was founded by ceramicist Hugh C. Robertson, who had previously worked with his father and brothers at another pottery. Robertson was deeply interested in glazes, and he developed both an oxblood glaze (inspired by a Chinese glaze) and a Fine crackle glaze, the latter of which became Dedham's signature, along with its frequent use of a crouching rabbit motif.
Chelsea Keramics Sang-de-boeuf Pottery
Stoneware
Chelsea, Massachusetts.
One of the early innovators of artistic glaze, Hugh Robertson continued the experimentation begun at his earlier venture, the Chelsea Keramic Art Works, in Dedham, Massachusetts, where he moved his re-formed Chelsea Pottery in 1896. Robertson's celebrated sang-de-boeuf (oxblood) glaze, developed at Chelsea, was influenced by the potter's early interest in Asian ceramics. To offset the high cost of producing artistic lines, the Dedham Pottery relied on the success of the crackle glaze of its commercial tableware, another Asian-inspired effect, which has become a perennial collecting favorite.
Oxblood vases by Robertson have sold for thousands at Auction.
Hubbell Incorporated was founded as a proprietorship in 1888 by Harvey Hubbell II. Born in Connecticut in 1859, he was a U.S. inventor, entrepreneur and industrialist. His best-known inventions are the U.S. electrical plug[4] and the pull-chain light socket.
