Scandinavian stoneware table lamp designed by Inger Persson for the Swedish manufacturer Rörstrand in the 1960s.
The base features a construction particularly characteristic of the ceramist's work: a lower section in speckled natural stoneware, partially covered with an earth-brown glaze, topped by a wide cylindrical body coated in a deep turquoise blue glaze. Hand-incised vertical lines add rhythm to the glazed surface.
The contrast between the matte, mineral texture of the exposed stoneware and the depth of the glossy blue glaze gives this small lamp a highly sculptural presence, representative of Scandinavian modernist ceramics of the 1960s. The base bears the Rörstrand Ateljé Sweden mark on the underside, as well as the artist's signature.
Presented with a cylindrical lampshade in ecru woven fabric.
