A table lamp made of glazed ceramic, notable for its highly attractive decorative design, its artisanal character, the quality of its finish, and the aesthetic value of the Manises ceramic tradition. Its design is based on a sculptural body featuring plant-inspired and ornamental forms, with reliefs inspired by classical leaf and fruit motifs, enhanced by a characteristic yellow glaze that adds luminosity and a striking decorative presence.
Cerámicas Hispania, based in Manises, played a key role in the significant development of the Valencian ceramics industry during the 20th century. The company produced a wide variety of decorative and utilitarian objects, and was particularly renowned for its vividly colored glazed pieces and their meticulous relief ornamentation. Its designs reflect the ceramic tradition of Manises, reinterpreted in line with postwar decorative tastes and the trends in domestic design of the 1950s and 1960s.
