About the Artist: Krösselbach is a family-run German ceramics manufacturer based in Eberbach, Germany. Established in 1946 by Giselle Schließler, the company remains operational today. Unlike mass-market factories, many of their early vintage pieces were completely hand-formed. Because of this, vintage Krösselbach lamps and vessels (like this lamp typically feature distinct factory variations in their glazes and carry stylised signatures on the base.
