1960s Pieter Groeneveldt Craquelé Ceramic Table Lamp with Custom Silk Shade

Height: 75 cm / 29.5 in – Diameter: 30 cm / 11.8 in

Discover a rare piece of mid-century Dutch artistry with this exquisite craquelé ceramic table lamp by Pieter Groeneveldt (1889–1982). Crafted in the 1960s, this lamp perfectly captures Groeneveldt’s signature fusion of organic forms and refined glazes inspired by Japanese and Chinese ceramic traditions.

The hand-thrown ceramic base is adorned in a mesmerizing blue-green glaze, its crackled surface creating an intricate mosaic of delicate lines that shift beautifully with the light — like water reflecting a cloudy sky. Resting on its original textured black clay stand, the base is grounded in earthy elegance that highlights Groeneveldt’s reverence for natural materials.

We have thoughtfully completed this piece with a custom-made silk lampshade in a subtle blue-grey hue with warm undertones when lit, further echoing the tranquil, timeless spirit of East Asian ceramics. The gentle interplay of cool and warm tones brings a sense of serenity and quiet sophistication to any interior.


Pieter Groeneveldt, widely regarded as one of the Netherlands’ foremost ceramists, trained under renowned sculptor and ceramicist Chris Lanooy before founding his own studio in Voorschoten in 1923. His work is celebrated for its timeless forms, sophisticated glazes, and masterful craftsmanship, bridging European modernism with the enduring elegance of Asian ceramic art.

A perfect statement piece for collectors and interior connoisseurs alike, this lamp brings warmth, texture, and an understated sense of history to any space.
