The lamp is comparable to 19th-century Japanese champlevé-style lamps and most likely dates from the late Meiji to early Taishō period, circa 1890–1920.Beautiful and unusual antique table lamp in an Asian, most likely Japanese Meiji/Taishō style. The lamp has a striking openwork hemispherical metal shade decorated with floral blossom motifs. The flowers and ornamental bands feature coloured champlevé/cloisonné enamel in shades of green, blue, turquoise, red, cream and brown. The stem and base are also decorated with enamelled ornamental bands and panels. The lamp is probably made of brass or bronze with enamel decoration and is mounted on a wooden base. It has a very decorative patina and an attractive aged appearance. This is a rare and highly decorative object, especially because the openwork metal shade is still present.
