Bay Keramik Vase Lamp 82 - 14 by "Bodo Mans" - Cordless Table Lamp made of West German Pottery from the 70s
This exceptional vase lamp is part of our new Botanical Light Collection and was upcycled from an original Bay Keramik vase from a design series by Bodo Mans. Bodo Mans was one of the formative designers of the West German Pottery era in the 50s to 70s. His works are characterized by sculptural reliefs, expressive glazes, and a distinctive design language - qualities that this small vase impressively combines.
The light blue / turquoise Fat Lava glaze is accented by a striking, circular relief in green and yellow tones. As a deliberate contrast, the vase was combined with a handmade lampshade made of high-quality cotton fabric. The translucent fabric is a design from the Signapur series by Westfalen Stoffe. The large-format leaf motif picks up the colors of the ceramic and gives the lamp a modern, botanical lightness. When lit, fine light reflections are created in the fabric, making the shade appear vibrant and creating a pleasantly warm atmosphere.
Gentle Conversion to a Lamp
The original vintage vase was converted into a lamp without drilling and with a reversible plug-in solution. This preserves the collector's value of the ceramic. The lamp base has also been weighted for a secure stand.
Cordless Lighting
The lamp is equipped with a rechargeable LED bulb, which is conveniently charged via USB-C. Depending on the brightness, the lighting duration is approximately 6 to 12 hours. Brightness and light color can be individually adjusted via the included remote control. This allows the lamp to be flexibly used on sideboards, shelves, dining tables, windowsills, or even on balconies and terraces – completely without a disturbing cable.
The LED bulb is a standard model and can be easily replaced at any time if needed.
A handmade unique piece from Berlin - created from an original Bay Keramik vase with an iconic design / decor by Bodo Mans from the 70s and an individually crafted lampshade.
