Founded in 1953 by Czechoslovakian migrants Dagmar and Miloslav Kratochvil, Ellis Ceramics is a cornerstone of mid-century Australian pottery.
Arriving in Melbourne in 1951, the Kratochvils initially established a small studio in their Abbotsford backyard. As their modernist designs gained commercial traction (securing large orders from major department stores like Myer and Grace Bros) the operation expanded to a dedicated factory at 86 Nicholson Street, Abbotsford.
At its peak in the 1960s, the studio employed over 15 staff members, including art students from RMIT (Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology) and international ceramicists, before closing in 1972.

THIS LISTING
A fabulous ceramic table lamp in a fabulous decor - bright lime green on the bottom half of the lamp base, and a 'fat lava' style mottled brown and white finish towards the top half of the base. Such a fantastic combination; it really has that wow factor!
This retro gem has been paired with a hand-made lamp shade made out of vintage fabric, courtesy of our friends at Retrotastik.
The lamp base is in excellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks or any other flaws to mention. Please note the lamp shade may have some inconsistencies in the pattern and fabric itself being vintage, however it is free from damage.
Note there are a few ways you could display the pattern; we have provided two examples below!
This beauty measures a whopping 91cm (36") tall (!!!) including the shade, 40cm tall not including the shade or light fixture.
