Description from the seller
Pair of Decorative Imari-Style Porcelain Table Lamps – Floral & Gilt Decoration – 20th Century (Attributed)
An impressive matching pair of decorative porcelain table lamps featuring elaborate Japanese Imari-style floral and geometric designs, presented on dark polished wooden bases.
The porcelain bodies are generously rounded and decorated with intricate flowers, flowering branches, stylised peonies and richly coloured ornamental panels.
The decoration combines the classic Imari colour palette of deep cobalt blue, warm iron-red and orange, ivory white and extensive gold-coloured detailing.
The dense floral compositions are complemented by geometric borders and decorative motifs that extend around the shoulders and main bodies of both lamps.
Each lamp features a polished reddish-brown wooden upper mount, brass-coloured electrical stem and black bulb holder, together with a matching dark wooden circular base.
The lamps form an attractive coordinated pair suitable for traditional, eclectic or contemporary interiors.
