About This Piece

Vintage Design

Step into a world of exquisite craftsmanship and timeless beauty with this pair of hand-painted porcelain table lamps, crafted in Portugal by the renowned Alcobaça porcelain factory (founded by Jose dos Reis in 1875)—a name steeped in history and artistry, now regrettably extinct. Each lamp stands as a testament to the legacy of master artisans whose hands breathed life into delicate porcelain, creating treasures cherished for generations. Bothe lamps are stamped with the factory's name (ELPA Alcobaça) and one of them is numbered.

Some curiosity:

ELPA Alcobaça refers to the ceramics and porcelain factory located in Alcobaça, Portugal. ELPA stands for "Empresa de Louças de Porcelana de Alcobaça," which translates to "Porcelain China Company of Alcobaça." Alcobaça is a city in Portugal known for its rich history in ceramics production. The ELPA Alcobaça factory was renowned for producing high-quality porcelain and ceramics, often featuring intricate designs and hand-painted motifs. Unfortunately, like many historical factories, it have ceased operations, leading to its extinction.

with meticulous attention to detail, intricate patterns dance across the surface of each lamp, painted by skilled hands with a precision that speaks of years of tradition and expertise. The vibrant hues and captivating motifs transport you to a bygone era, where elegance and sophistication reigned supreme.

Elevating the lamps further are their elegant silhouettes, adorned with graceful curves and rish embellishments that exude refinement and charm. The lamps are crowned by opaline glass shades. As they illuminate your space, the soft glow emanating from within casts a warm and inviting ambiance, enveloping your surroundings in a gentle embrace.

These lamps, although carrying some signs of time (crack lines, visible on the photos) are true collectors items,

Whether gracing a bedside table, adorning a mantelpiece, or enhancing a cozy reading nook, these porcelain table lamps serve as timeless reminders of a bygone era of craftsmanship and beauty. Embrace the allure of history and artistry with these exquisite pieces, each one a masterpiece in its own right, destined to become a cherished heirloom in your home.
