Large Soholm UFO Rocket Blue Green Danish Table Lamp 1960s Retro Atomic Space Age 1068

Vintage Soholm Danish Pottery Ceramic 1960s Table Lamp

A large, absolutely beautiful and very impressive studio pottery "UFO" table lamp.

Features a smooth, glossy glaze in vibrant shimmering shades of blue, green, purple and amber.

Elegant and stunning space age shape has led to the name "UFO" or "rocket" lamp.

Although this particular lamp was made by Soholm, renowned Danish architect and designer, Esben Le Klint (1915-1969), commissioned some lamps of this model to be made by Hasle Keramik (same ownership as Soholm) for sale in the high end Danish homestore, Illums Bolighus.

Model number 1068, designed by Soholm Pottery.

Handmade by Soholm Stentoj in Denmark in the 1960s.

Has the manufacturer’s name and model number on the base.

35cm high, including the original Bakelite lampholder, and 19cm wide at the base.

Excellent fully working vintage condition with only very minimal signs of age.
____________________________________________________________

Has been rewired with black high quality Italian vintage style braided cable.

We can fit a UK/Irish, European, Australian/NZ or American* plug.

Takes a E27 lightbulb, maximum 60w (not included).

*If used in the USA/100/110/120v we recommend using an energy saving/LED bulb. E26 bulbs should fit but because they are 1mm smaller may need to be fully turned to ensure they make contact with the fitting. This lamp will take a European type/size lampshade with a ring diameter of 1.5 inches (3.6cm) or alternatively a lampshade that sits on the light bulb. See FAQs for full details.

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.

There may also be slight variations in the colours shown due to lighting, the camera lens and the device the image is viewed through.

Handmade items may have slight imperfections, such as air bubbles in glass, which add to their uniqueness and charm.
