Mid-Century Modern Ceramic Daisy Table Lamp

This is a vintage ceramic table lamp featuring a bulbous base that tapers towards the top, with a distinct mid-century modern aesthetic. The ceramic body is finished in a vibrant, speckled mustard yellow or ochre glaze, characteristic of glazes popular in the 1960s-1970s. Adorning the ceramic surface are hand-painted or applied white daisy-like flowers with light blue centers, arranged in a seemingly random yet balanced pattern around the circumference. The painted flowers show some slight variations in size and petal formation, suggesting a handcrafted element. Above the ceramic base, there is a turned wooden neck or collar, likely made of a light-colored wood such as pine or maple, showing natural wood grain and a polished finish. This wooden element transitions to the lamp's light socket assembly, which accommodates a standard upright bulb (a white, candle-style bulb is visible). The lamp is topped with what appears to be a light-colored, possibly fabric or parchment, lampshade, though only the bottom edge is clearly visible. The overall construction suggests a sturdy build. Condition-wise, the visible areas of the ceramic body appear to be in good condition with no obvious chips or cracks. There is a light accumulation of dust, particularly on the wooden elements and the base, suggesting it has been stored or is in a less-used area. The metal base upon which the ceramic body rests appears to have a bronze or coppery patina, consistent with aged metal. The overall quality suggests a mass-produced item from the period, but with decorative elements that were often hand-applied or finished, giving it a charming, slightly artisanal feel. The era would likely be mid to late 20th century.
