This vintage Manises ceramic lamp base features a sculptural artichoke or pinecone form in luminous turquoise glaze—characteristic of mid-20th-century Valencian ceramics.

The elongated silhouette rises from a black glossy plinth, its surface modeled with overlapping petals that catch light with glossy depth. This celebrated form captures the exuberant design spirit of post-war Manises pottery.

Crowned with a bespoke cylindrical shade in Liberty London's Nesfield Collection fabric—a limited-edition cotton-linen twill featuring layered woodland foliage and stylized blossoms in moss, claret, and soft turquoise tones. The warm, painterly pattern beautifully echoes the lamp's turquoise base while contrasting its sleek ceramic form.

Standing over a metre tall, this lamp commands presence while casting rich, ambient light—a sophisticated dialogue between Spanish ceramic tradition and Liberty's timeless botanical artistry. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
