Satsuma Style Porcelain Vase Table Lamp with Shade
Description
A table lamp assembly consisting of two components: a ceramic vase-form lamp base and a detached lampshade. The ceramic base features extensive Orientalist decoration in the Satsuma style, utilizing a palette of iron red, brown, and extensive gold accents against a white ground. The decoration depicts stylized floral and botanical motifs and cartouches. The vase body is mounted on a dark, circular wooden plinth and is fitted with a brass socket assembly and a white wire harp structure. A label on the socket indicates electrical specifications, likely a wattage limit. The detached lampshade is large, constructed of textured, off-white fabric stretched over a wire frame, and is notable for its distinctly scalloped or wavy lower edge.
