{1950s French Camille Tharaud Limoges Lampe Berger with Red Roses}

Some of you may not yet know that I actually do have an on line Boutique where I sell mainly French Vintage and Antique Gifts. Yes, I do ship WORLDWIDE!
So here is another treasure found in France for you. A lovely 1950s Camille Tharaud Limoges Lampe Berger with Red Roses! It is in a perfect ORIGINAL condition. No new catalytic but still its original one. Very hard to find any of these.
Lovely Limoges Lampe Berger, which is available at my on line Boutique Mariette's Back to Basics
Photo from previous day, right before a sudden thunderstorm... Two roses from our garden but next day one was too far gone already.
With such a beautiful hand painted Limoges Lampe Berger you can have Red Roses year-round!
Camille Tharaud 1878-1956 was the inventor of the high fired porcelain; up to 1400°C.
This rare high quality porcelain sells often at extreme high prices like here at 1stdibs (click it)
Shown here is the back side with Red Roses painted on.
Our only rose blooming was not a red one...
Without the decorative brass cap, this lamp is 16 cm high or 6.3 inch.
Here you can see all its details, a perfect gold band around the foot.
Lampe Berger being embossed on its original brass neck.
And what is quite rare; its original CATALYTIC!
Really in pristine Museum Quality as you can see...
The markings on the bottom: Camille Tharaud Limoges Lampe Berger and made in France...
Sold out...
You can see this very lamp in exact the same condition, same cap as well, in the book: Lampes Berger A Century of History by Gérald Vilcocq on page 204, 3rd from the right... Find link below to a previous post where I show this book.
Only in France I did find this very same Lampe Berger with Red Roses at Souvenirs-d'Autrefois just click this link.
However, theirs is shown with a different cap and a new catalytic...

      Hard to tell if this beauty has ever been used. The stone catalytic looks still so beautiful...
      Enjoy the last day of work and happy Friday to you!

  6. Lampe Berger with Red Roses looks very beautiful and elegant and must gives us wonderful aroma, Mariette; Love the pink rose you decorated with it as well♡♡♡

    PS. Thank you SO much about the word 'molt', my dear friend♪ I got 2 words mixed up and used wrong one many times (^^;) I revised my post from the title:-) I always appreciate your help.
    And the pictures in your post from 2012 were SO clear and wonderful☆☆☆

    Sending Lots of Love and Hugs to my Dear friend in America, xoxo Miyako*

    1. Dearest Miyako,
      This is a very beautiful and elegant piece and if used with any of the authentic Lampe Berger oils, it makes for a wonderful romantic aroma!
      Oh, when husband Pieter did bring me those two roses, I had to use them in these photos. We have so few roses the last couple of years...
      Glad you liked my post, like you I never had heard about this molting before and English being our second language is not always easy! So I loved to pass this on to you. Your husband did such a tremendous job in bringing it inside to watch...
      Hugs and love from Georgia/USA,
      Mariette

    1. Dearest Tamago,
      Thank you and such a perfect Lampe Berger ages far better than we humans... Since it is high fired porcelain it makes them survive forever I guess.
      Those two roses did wilt very fast, only for two days they looked pretty but I was glad I got to use them in these photos.
      Hugs to you,
      Mariette
