Table lamp in glazed porcelain from Germany, dating to circa 1950–1960.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Description:
An elegant table lamp crafted from fine Dresden porcelain, Germany. The base features a refined pastoral "scene galante" with two figures (a shepherd and a shepherdess), a sheep, and a birdcage, enriched with intricate hand-applied floral details.

Markings: Blue underglaze mark on the bottom (intertwined "S" with crown and "Dresden" script).

Serial Number: Incised in the paste: 11881X.

Material: Glazed and hand-painted porcelain.

Porcelain Condition:
The porcelain body is overall in excellent vintage condition, considering its age and fragility. There are no cracks or repairs to the main figures (faces, limbs, and fingers are intact).

Specific Note: As shown in the detailed photographs, there is a small chip/missing piece of porcelain on one of the decorative bush elements on the base (loss of a portion of applied foliage). This flaw is minor and does not affect the stability or overall aesthetic of the sculptural group, but is noted for full transparency.
The delicate elements, such as the flower petals and the birdcage, remain well-preserved.

Lampshade:
Original vintage lampshade with fringe. It shows clear signs of aging, moisture spots, and small tears consistent with the object's age.

Electronics:
Original vintage braided wiring with original switch in working order.

Note on cleaning: The item shows natural dust accumulation due to age, particularly among the delicate flower petals and the intricate details of the base. To avoid any risk of breakage during handling, professional deep cleaning is left to the discretion and care of the buyer.
