An outstanding example of independent Danish studio ceramics from Jørgen Mogensen (b. 1927). After making his name and developing his distinctive stoneware techniques at Royal Copenhagen, Mogensen established his own studio in 1964, focusing on unique, hand-built pieces like this lamp.
The table lamp base features the simplified, abstract form and heavy, tactile stoneware surface characteristic of his post-Royal Copenhagen output. As a functional piece of art, it merges the sculptural quality of his Brutalist-inspired vessels with practical design.
