Royal Delft Blue and White Ceramic Vintage Table Lamps – Gertrude & Alice

€2,700.00

Meet Gertrude and Alice, a pair of Royal Delft blue and white ceramic table lamps, meticulously handcrafted by Amitābha Studio from two authentic De Porceleyne Fles vases dated 1984 and 1989. Each vintage table lamp bears painter’s initials and the distinctive Royal Delft factory marks, underscoring their authenticity and collectibility. Hand-painted in Delft Blue with fluid floral bouquets, the vases now take on new life as unique table lamps, finished with bespoke pleated silk shades in a refined blush pink.

The vases are classic Royal Delft earthenware, their cobalt decoration shifting from deep, inky tones to translucent washes that breathe depth and movement into every petal and leaf. This painterly variation—hallmark of true De Porceleyne Fles craftsmanship—reflects a ceramic tradition reaching back to the Dutch Golden Age. As the last surviving 17th-century Delftware factory still in operation, Royal Delft’s work continues to embody centuries of artistry and heritage.

Amitābha Studio has paired each vase with a couture pleated lampshade in blush pink silk, handmade to diffuse a warm, flattering glow. The shades’ soft sheen plays against the crisp blue-and-white palette, adding a contemporary layer of warmth that enhances the lamps’ decorative presence. Subtle brass fittings complete the restrained design, ensuring balance between heritage and modern refinement.

Perfectly suited for bedside tables, flanking a large mantle, or gracing an entry console where symmetry and elegance matter . They are collectible table lamps that speak equally to connoisseurs of Delftware and to interior designers seeking fresh, artful ways to integrate blue-and-white ceramics into contemporary living spaces. Both functional and sculptural, they are at once decorative table lamps and enduring heirlooms of Dutch craft.

De Porceleyne Fles, later given the distinction of Koninklijke or Royal, known now as Royal Delft, is a Dutch manufacturer of Delft Blue pottery, or Delfts Blauw aardewerk, headquartered in Delft, the Netherlands. It is the only remaining ceramics factory out of 32 that were established in Delft during the 17th century. Founded in 1653, it has been active for over 360 years without interruption. Royal Delft is not only the oldest surviving producer of Delftware, but one that is highly respected for its artistry. The motifs on Delft Blue ceramics find their roots in the Chinese porcelain from the Ming and K‟ang Hsi dynasties.
