We are up to 50 pieces now and trying to slow down, however, we keep managing to find pieces we dont have.
For those who are not familiar with the work of the late George Barsony, he was a talented Hungarian Sculptor who arrived in Australia in 1949. George and his wife Jean set up Barsony Ceramics in Guildford which is in western Sydney.
Throughout the 50s, 60s and 70s they were famous for their range of Black Lady Lamps and figurines, however, they didnt just make Black ladies, they also made lamps in a lustre, white, brown and even gold finish. There are also lamps of fish and a poodle lamp, however the most sought after are the quite possibly the larger dancing ladies. They also marked their pieces under the names of Venice and Silver Cloud, though I am still yet to come across any 'Venice' pieces.
George has only just recently passed away in 2010 at the age of 93.
If you have any questions regarding these lamps, or if there any particular pieces you are after or wish to sell, just send me an email at retrolover7587@hotmail.com .

I enjoyed looking at your collection of lamps and especially like the ribbon shades that go with them so perfectly. How ever did you get interested in collecting these lamps? It would be so much fun decorating a feminine bedroom around one of them.
ReplyDeleteHi there, I also have the lamp with the man playing guitar. Daniel
