Extremely Rare 1960s Lamp by Iconic Canadian Artist Tommy Kakinuma
Stunning extra large and extremely rare ceramic lamp, by famed B.C. artist Tommy Kakinuma (1908-1982). This epic piece is in mint condition, and features a fiery orange glaze with undertones of olive green and aqua. The shape is simple and timeless, and nicely complimented by a straight drum shade with real grass cloth. Kakinuma is likely one of the most famous Canadian ceramic artists ever, and is well known for his iconic pieces featuring owls and birds. Our research showed he made very few lamps, so this is an opportunity for a collector to own an extremely hard to find "Tommy" piece! 33.5"H overall, shade is 15" in diameter, base is 17"H x 9.5" in diameter, $1195
