About This Piece

Vintage Design

An Art Deco table lamp handcrafted from an original Boch Frères Keramis Model 1118 vase, designed by Charles Catteau in the 1920s, featuring geometric relief and ivory craquelure glaze, paired with a raffia fringe shade.

The lamp is newly wired for use in the U.S. (or for the country of your choice). The listed height includes the lampshade.

This lamp is crafted by Amitābha Studio from an authentic Boch Frères Keramis Model 1118 vase, designed by Charles Catteau and produced in La Louvière, Belgium between circa 1920 and 1930. Commonly referred to as the “pineapple” vase, the form is one of Catteau’s most recognizable Art Deco designs.

The ovoid ceramic body features a repeating molded geometric relief that wraps rhythmically around the surface. The pattern references stylized natural forms while remaining rigorously structured — a hallmark of Catteau’s Art Deco vocabulary. The glaze is a soft ivory tone with fine craquelure, adding depth and subtle tonal variation across the raised pattern.

Unlike painted Keramis examples, this model relies on sculptural form and glaze texture rather than surface decoration, giving it a restrained, architectural presence.

The lamp is topped with a dome-shaped raffia shade, constructed in segmented panels and finished with cream braid trim and long fringe.

Converted using non-invasive methods to preserve the integrity of the original ceramic form.
