The classic tiled lamp base, by OAK+CLAY features their hand-built aged ivory gloss tiles, paired with a subtly contrasting, locally sourced solid oak base. The wood is sealed but minimally varnished and lacquered, to keep the unique character of the wood and preserve its natural warmth and grain.
The aged ivory tiles that form the body of the lamp base are the perfect muted tone to work in anyone's home, with subtle irregularities of shape and texture adding personality and a tactile quality to its minimal but beautifully constructed frame.
The lamp base has an antique brass bulb-holder fixture, where the switch is located. And a 1.5 meter natural colour jute fabric braided cord with a U.K. plug fixing. B22 bayonet bulb required.
Each stoneware tile is shaped, glazed and finished individually, not pressed from a mould or produced to uniform perfection, but hand-built and fired in OAK+CLAY's Yorkshire studio, creating subtle variation in texture, tone and depth that makes every piece unique, tactile and distinctive.
The gently rounded grouted edges soften the geometric form, giving the lamp a quiet, minimal and sculptural presence.
Please note: Pieces are usually made to order, minimising any waste or overproduction. With a lead time of around 3–5 weeks if no pieces are available, and depending on the complexity of the piece and the workshop schedule. As each item is handcrafted, these timings can vary slightly, but you will be kept updated from when your order is placed.
Please note: Lampshade not included. We think a 20-30 cm conical/tapered linen fabric shade looks great, but make this piece truly unique by curating your own.
About OAK+CLAY
OAK+CLAY is a small, independent design studio based in North Yorkshire, specialising in distinctive homeware and furniture made using their signature handmade stoneware tiles.
Each tile is individually shaped, glazed and fired in their Yorkshire studio, creating subtle variations in texture, tone and depth that make every piece unique. Their designs combine these tactile ceramics with locally sourced timber, minimally finished to preserve its natural warmth and grain.
The central idea behind OAK+CLAY is relatively simple: bringing together complementary materials to create furniture and objects that combine the character of traditional craft with a contemporary, minimal design language.
Working in small batches allows them to remain closely involved in every stage of production, from preparing the clay and glazes to finishing the timber and packing each order. It's a time-intensive process, but one that celebrates the character of natural materials and the human touch behind every piece.
