This nature inspired ceramic glazed planter by Antica Athena consists of a white deer faun with gold plated detailing.

This 1980s white glazed deer faun is decorated with 24k gold-plated details.

This Egyptian inspired ceramic glazed planter by Antica Athena consists of a white Pharaoh’s face with gold plated detailing. The Pharaoh's face brings to mind the Egyptian revival of the Art Deco period; an era which came about due to the sheer amount of Egypt exhibitions throughout the 1960s and 1980s in Europe, a revival of egyptianism which we are reliving as of today with all the new excavations and findings in Egypt as well as their new mega museum.

Although this specific 1980s planter is a more minimal version than many of its earlier period, it still echoes the elaborate splendour of the Pharaohs with some humour having the plants bushing out from the top of his head. The death mask which dominates the face is decorated with 24k gold-plated striped details.

The planter is in very good used condition considering its 40 years of age with some light wear around the top rim, two chips which they will not be visible once you place a plant in it and some light out wear as seen on images.

A bold pair of ceramic table lamps from Italy, very much in a neoclassical style and designed towards the end of the 1970s. Taking the form of a trophy urn, these lamps contain many of the usual neoclassical tropes: fluting; an organic, curved form; and neat gold flourishes, in this case finished in 24 carat gold leaf. The colour scheme is a cream and an iridescent midnight blue, giving the lamps a regal, striking look.

The lamps themselves are big, and would look amazing in all sorts of interiors. Please note that shades are for display purposes only.

The pair are currently wired to a UK plug, but this can be changed depending on the buyer’s location. The lamps take E27 screw lightbulbs.

A geometric table lamp, made of glazed ceramic, and finished with a leaf motif. An irregular pentagon, this piece features a jutting brass pipe running through the middle to the bulb fitting, creating a distinct left and right. Each side features iridescent leaves, that shimmer depending on the angle.

Distinctly 1980s, and broadly inspired by the angular playfulness of the Memphis Milano group, this table lamp would make an excellent addition to any room - the dark tones mean that any eighties excess is ironed out into a suave, sophistcated piece.

Please note that the shade is for display purposes only. However, if you require help looking for a lampshade, we can gladly point you in the right direction. The lamp is currently wired for EU plug sockets, but we can change this if required depending on the buyer’s location.

This alluring table lamp originates from the late 1970s, and is believed to have originated in the south of Italy. Composed entirely of ceramic, the vase-shaped base was dipped in to an iridescent paint mix before being glazed and hardened in the kiln – the effect, a gorgeous oil-like finish, as captivating as it is unique. The effect is not too dissimilar to the works of Johann Loetz Witwe, the Austrian glass manufacturers. The piece is finished by rings of 24-karat gold, providing a regal touch to the light.

An Art Nouveau-inspired table lamp from the 1970s, composed entirely of brass. The organic, trophyesque base gently curves inwards from a leaf-like base, before widening again where the bulb fitting is. The simple, understated lines mean this piece would make even the most modern interiors come alive with the fin de siècle style of the Art Nouveau movement.
