Rose Tarlow Ceramic Raffles Table Lamp with Black Silk Oval Shade

Rose Tarlow Raffles ceramic table lamp, hand-crafted in a pale off-white, matte-crackle finish topped with a black silk shade. It came with a Rose Tarlow paper label (that was damaged in transit), it has handwritten construction notes marked on reverse, making it truly special. It’s easy to assume coming from an estate in Los Angeles, it may have been one of her original prototypes. If you enjoy a story with great provenance, this lamp is for you! 
 
Rose Tarlow is a design legend, one of the most original talents in the design industry today. Tarlow is an Interior Designer, antiquarian, and author, with a line of furniture and textiles (exclusive to the trade). Her Melrose House showrooms, based in LA and NY are known for mixing traditional and modern aesthetics with casual elements like reclaimed wood, French oak beams, plaster, and stone. She blends antiques with minimalism, creating chic lived-in interiors. Her A-List clients include David Geffen, Oprah, Barbara Walters, and others. Editor, Marian McEvoy wrote in Veranda Magazine that Tarlow, Albert Hadley, Jacques Grange, Michael Taylor, Renzo Mongiardino, and John Stefanidis, were six interior designers who had an "enormous impact on the design world". She's been featured in nearly every important architecture and design publication and has won many honorable design awards. As a Curator and Interior Designer, these are the timeless, design qualities I seek – knowing they will transcend time, always in style, never trendy. A treasured find for collectors and interior design enthusiasts!
