One-of-a-Kind Ceramic Table Lamps
Vintage and Antique Pottery, Reimagined as Functional Art
Born in Amsterdam, now handcrafted in Sitges, Spain · Shipped Worldwide
At Amitābha Studio, every lamp begins as a piece of history. We search for vintage and antique ceramics that we truly fall in love with and then give them a new life as lamps. We spend an outrageous, irresponsible amount time handcrafting each one: from obsessing over the shade color, fabric, and shape, custom-cutting the brass tops, choosing the cord, wiring the electrics, and doing deep-dive research to make sure every vintage lamp or antique lamp is authentic. The result is a small, changing collection of unique high-end table lamps that feel like found treasures rather than products. Whether it’s one of our Delft Blue lamps, a Chinoserie lamp, or a lamp from our new Spanish collection, we hope you can feel the history, the story, the care, the love in every piece and that it brings light into your home and into your life.

Unique Delft Lamps Handcrafted from Antique & Vintage Delft PotteryAt Amitābha Studio, we specialize in transforming antique and vintage Delftware and into unique ceramic lamps. Our Delft lamps start life as vases, jars, tobacco pots, and other historic pieces; we rewire them to modern safety standards (without harming the original vessel) and pair them with carefully chosen shades. The result is a small collection of historic high-end ceramic table lamps that feel at home in everyday interiors. We have tall table lamps as well as small ones. From large statement table lamps to small table lamps that tuck neatly on an end table, each Delft piece is meant to be used, not just displayed.
Delft Blue & Delftware LampsOur Delft blue lamps and Delftware table lamps honor the heritage of Dutch pottery with hand-painted motifs and signature cobalt hues. These are not replicas—they’re authentic ceramics reimagined as functional, one-of-a-kind works of art. Many clients discover us while searching specifically for a Delft lamp or Delft lamps—we work exclusively with authentic Delft pottery, not reproductions.
Antique & Vintage Table Lamps
Whether you’re drawn to the patina of a true antique lamp or the timeless appeal of a vintage table lamp, each piece in our collection brings soul and character to your home. Ideal for maximalist, grandmillennial, or classic interiors, these unique lamps add depth and narrative to any space.
Chinoiserie & Coastal Decor Lamps
Our antique lamps and vintage lamps incorporate a range of interior styles, from a Chinoiserie table lamp with intricate Eastern-inspired patterns to coastal lamps that echo the palette of the sea, our unique lamps suit a range of refined aesthetics. Think blue-and-white lamps that complement breezy beach homes or bold, eclectic maximalist spaces. We even have a art deco lamp or an art nouveau lamp from time to time, as well as our new collection of Spanish lamps from many different regional potteries.
Ceramic Table Lamps for Living Rooms & Bedrooms
Every Amitābha Studio piece is a ceramic lamp first and foremost. We transform vases, jars and tobacco pots into ceramic table lamps for living rooms, bedside tables and reading nooks. The weight of the ceramic base keeps your lamp stable, while the handcrafted shades soften the light so it’s flattering in real homes—not just styled photos. If you love blue and white lamps, rich glazes or sculptural silhouettes, our collection is designed to be lived with and admired daily.Lamps for Living Rooms and Bedrooms
Our lamps are designed not just to be admired, but lived with. Whether you’re looking for lamps for the living room to warm a conversation space, bedside table lamps for ambient reading light or a large table lamp to anchor a sideboard, each piece is rewired to modern safety standards and sized for everyday interiors. Think of them as functional art: statement table lamps and accent lamps that still give beautiful, practical light.
How to Choose the Right Table Lamp
Many people arrive here after scrolling past pages of generic table lamps for living room spaces and still not seeing anything that feels special. Our lamps aren’t mass-produced lamp sets, but each piece can still do the practical jobs: a statement table lamp on a console, a smaller accent lamp on a bookshelf, a pair of ceramic buffet lamps on a sideboard, or end table lamps flanking a sofa — each one with its own history.Because we start with individual ceramics, we naturally end up with different scales: from small lamps and small table lamps that tuck under shelves or sit beside artwork, to taller pieces that have more presence. Any given ceramic table lamp might work on a desk, an end table or in a corner you want to quietly highlight. Rather than buying a generic “nightstand lamps set of 2” or “bedside lamps set of 2”, many of our clients prefer to choose two lamps that relate to each other without matching perfectly. When the ceramics allow it, we do sometimes create pairs specifically for nightstands.
Every lamp you see here is a one-off high end lamp for sale; once it’s gone, it’s gone. That’s why people often tell us they think about the lamps they hesitated on long after the listing has disappeared.

One Winter’s Night in Amsterdam…
One dark Amsterdam evening, we were talking with a friend about how much lighting shapes our mood — especially during long northern winters. Looking around our home, we realized we needed more light… and more beauty. But we couldn’t find any lamps that felt personal, soulful, and well made — so we decided to create our own!
That first Delft lamp lit up not just our space, but something in us. With Davide’s love of craftsmanship and Kimberly’s background in art and interior design, we found joy in the process of creation and transformation.
That one lamp sparked what became Amitābha Studio. Every lamp we make is still handcrafted by us with great care and love — a celebration of history, beauty, and light.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are all of your lamps made from Delft pottery?
Delft is a signature part of our collection, but not all of our lamps are made from Delft pottery. We also create vintage lamps and antique lamps from ceramic pieces across Europe — including other Dutch and Belgian makers (like Gouda and Boch Frères Keramis), plus French faïence, Italian maiolica and Spanish ceramics such as Manises and Talavera. Each lamp is crafted from carefully sourced historic ceramics and rebuilt as a long-lasting ceramic lamp.
Are your lamps wired safely for my country’s plug and voltage?
Yes. Even though many of our pieces begin life as antique or vintage lamps, every Amitābha Studio lamp is rewired with new, tested components. Unless otherwise noted, all of our lamps are fitted with an E27 bulb fitting, compatible with both E27 bulbs (used in Europe) and E26 bulbs (used in the US). We also offer free plug customisation to match your country’s electrical standards. All components meet European safety guidelines and are CE-compliant.
Do you sell lamp shades for table lamps?
Yes — we offer limited edition pleated lampshades designed for table lamps available in vintage silk. We also have Ikat lampshades that we’ve specifically paired with our lamps. Browse our lampshades.
Can I request a custom lamp configuration?
Most lamps are sold as-is, but we do offer bespoke design services for special projects. If you have a particular vision in mind, feel free to reach out — we’re always open to creative collaborations.
Do you make chinoiserie, coastal, or maximalist lamps?
Many of our Delft and blue-and-white pieces read as the perfect chinoiserie lamp, and others make effortless coastal lamps or grandmillennial-style lamps. We often style our more colourful unique table lamps in maximalist and dopamine-decor interiors. For inspiration and examples, explore the style guides in our journal.
Do you offer trade discounts for interior designers?
Yes — we love working with interior designers and stylists. If you’re sourcing pieces for a project or interested in a specific lamp, get in touch — we’d be delighted to support your work.
Are your lamps truly one-of-a-kind?
Yes — every lamp is unique. We work with individual historic ceramics, so each piece becomes a one-off unique table lamp. Once a lamp is sold, it’s gone for good, which is part of what makes our unique lamps feel so special. Curious about our process? You can explore how we craft each lamp in our studio journal.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes — we offer worldwide shipping including to the US and the UK. All lamps are securely packed and shipped with tracking and insurance. We provide different shipping options depending on how quickly you’d like your lamp to arrive. These are shown at checkout, and we’re always happy to help with any questions.
What are the best lamps for a living room?
It depends on the size and layout of your space, but as a general guide we suggest choosing lamps for the living room that stand around 60–80 cm tall for ambient light. A pair of table lamps at this height frames a sofa or sideboard beautifully; for reading, you can always add a brighter task bulb. Many of our vintage table lamps and antique lamps sit in this range — explore those collections if you’re not sure where to start.
Still have questions?
We’re a small, passionate studio, and we’re always happy to help. Please get in touch — we’d love to hear from you.
Most Spanish Revival interiors stop at architecture—arches, plaster walls, timber beams.
