Fulper Pottery, Butterscotch Blue Flambe 2 Light Factory Lamp Base Arts & Crafts

  
The lamp base is a large size as it measures 21 1/4 tall to the top of the finial. T he pottery portion is 11 1/2" tall and considered a 12" size. It is also 9 in diameter at the bottom. This table lamp has a very tall ovoid tapered shape. The lamp has a large round cap on top of the Pottery with a stem rising up to a 2 light cluster with round satellite ball pull chains. The glaze on this piece is lovely. It is a combination of a high gloss medium blue to the upper portion of the lamp with the lower part of the lamp being in the high gloss butterscotch glaze. I want to point out that this is a factory lamp and not one drilled after market. I have come across at least 6 examples over the years with the same cluster and cap setup. This is how Fulper made some of their Pottery lamps. They would take established form and make into table lamps per request from customers both wholesale and retail. More than likely had some kind of fabric shade on it at one time. We will leave that choice to the new owner.

This lamp base is considered to be in excellent condition as there are no cracks, nicks, chips or dings. The lamp has been recently rewired with the antique brown rayon cord and a period plug.

There is a factory grinding nick on the bottom underside edge and this is pictured. This was made this way and not after market damage. The lamp base is marked on the underside bottom with Fulper's incised oval Racetrack Mark.

The pottery portion of the lamp is similar to Fulper shape number 425 in their catalog. It was described as a "Oviform 12" tall. I can honestly say that this is a very nice example of this form and glaze from Fulper Pottery.

It is quite heavy as it weighs 12 pounds. This would look Great on that Stickley, Mission, Arts and Crafts style lamp table. No store lets you out of the building with the merchandise unless it is paid for. Maybe if enough of you do this, they will change their policy. CLEMENTS ANTIQUES OF NEW HAMPSHIRE STOREFRONT.
