Shipping calculated at checkout.

This pair of small sweet one-of-a kind table lamps, Juliette & Gréco (as we named them) have been lovingly handcrafted from two antique vases made in the “la Chambre des peintres hollandaise” at Boch Frères Keramis, circa 1900. They are perfect for those small spaces—bookshelf, mantlepiece, little alcove, small bedside tables, nursery. We’ve paired them with custom made lampshades at an atelier near Amsterdam, in white silk with blue trim & new matching cords.

Around 1874, in the light of the growing interest of collectors of old faience pieces, Victor Boch, of the newly founded Boch Frères Keramis in Belgium, recruited Dutch painters from Maastricht, including some who had already gained experience working in Delft potteries. These Dutch faience painters brought along their knowledge, experience and know-how with them. Thanks to their collaboration, the working methods of the past were rediscovered and applied to a different clay than was used by the original Delft ceramicists.

The luxury faience from Boch was decorated with hand-painted Delft decor, which became a specialty of the manufacturer under the name “la Chambre des peintres hollandaise” recognizable by a hand painted signature of the interlaced letters “B, F, K“ (Boch Frères Keramis) on the bottom of the pieces as seen on these vases, now lamps!

Each lamp measures:

Height: 36cm (14.2 in) with shade

Width: 22cm (8.7 in) with shade

Price is for the pair.

E14 fittings; we can adapt the plug depending on the country you will use them in.
