Elegant lamp with a ceramic base and textile shade by Scheurich Keramik, model 408-40, made in Germany in the 1960s.
The jug-shaped base with a side handle features a rich contrast of textures, glazes, and colors in earth tones and browns. Its shades of moss green and earth brown create an organic, asymmetrical pattern, typical of this aesthetic language, in which the glaze reproduces shapes evoking solidified volcanic lava.
The conical shade, made of rustic cotton, stands out for its remarkable height and rich textile texture. It features an embroidered border that harmonizes with the earthy palette of the base. The result is a lamp with a rustic and decorative character. The term Fat Lava refers to the thick relief achieved in the glazes, reminiscent of the surface of erupting lava.
