Soholm Pottery Stentoj Blue Danish Table Lamp 1960s Retro Scandinavian Light 1025 (1)
Soholm Pottery Danish Blue Ceramic Table Lamp
Medium sized blue ceramic table lamp, handmade in Denmark in the 1960s/70s
Features a stunning very glossy indigo blue glaze with caramel amber and iridescent lighter blue highlights. Has a textured relief design on the corners.
The colour of the glaze looks slightly purple under sunlight.
Model number 1025, designed by Einar Johansen.
Handmade in Denmark by Soholm Stentoj (Pottery) on the Baltic island of Bornholm in the 1960s/70s.
Has manufacturer's details and model number etched on its base.
25cm high including the lampholder and 9cm wide at its base (12cm on the diagonal).
Very good vintage condition with only very minor signs of age.
Because it hasn’t been rewired yet, you have the opportunity to choose the colour of vintage style braided cable you would like it to be rewired with from a choice of black, white, dark brown, dark blue, light blue, burnt orange and old gold.
The last photo shows it with other lamps available for separate purchase.
___________________________________________________________
It will be rewired with vintage style Italian braided cable, and a new switch (if applicable), retaining the original Bakelite lamp holder if practicable (let us know if you would prefer a new E27 lamp holder). If you buy more than one lamp we will ensure they are rewired with matching fittings.
We can fit a British/Irish, European*, Aus/NZ plug or American** plug.
It takes a E27 lightbulb, maximum 60w (not included). In the photos is a vintage style LED Filament G95 'Radio Spiral' lightbulb (not included).
** If used in the USA/100/110/120v we recommend using an energy saving/LED bulb. E26 bulbs should work but because they are 1mm smaller they should be fully turned to ensure they make contact with the fitting. This lamp will take a European type/size lampshade with a ring of 1.5 inches (3.6cm) or alternatively a lampshade that sits on the light bulb. Full details of lampshades can be found under FAQs.

Note that we have attempted to show and state the condition as accurately as possible but this is a pre-loved, vintage item and some minor signs of age and/or use are to be expected. But unless otherwise stated there will be no chips or similar damage.
