Vintage Design
This pair of stoneware table lamps was designed by Einar Johansen and hand made on the Danish island of Bornholm by the company Soholm Stentoj (stoneware in Danish) in the 1960s. The design has the number 3001. The bases feature a graphich pattern consisting of shapes in the form of horizontal half moons. The lamps are made of stoneware and feature ceramic glazing in light blue. One of the lamps has a darker blue tone than the other. The lamps have been rewired with plugs working in Europe and have new shades. If to be used elsewhere, the lamps can either be used with an adapter or these can be rewired by a local electrician which is super easy. The lamps are marked with the designer’s initials and the company’s stamp. The lamp’s base measures 31 cm in height and 11 cm in diametre without the shades.
Søholm or Søholm Stentøj (Soholm Stoneware) dates back to the first half of the 17th century and the Danish island, Bornholm, which is famous for its pottery and fine ceramics. Søholm was founded in 1835, in Rønne, Bornholm by Herman Sonne Wolffsen (1811-1887) and Edvard Christian Sonne, making it one of the oldest ceramic factories on Bornholm, until its closure in 1996.
