Description from the seller
Vintage Buddha table lamp with polychrome ceramic and decorative lampshade – 20th century
Description
Original and dramatic vintage table lamp, characterized by a large seated Buddha figure in a meditative pose, made in glazed ceramic and hand-painted.
The figure features a glossy ivory-white finish, with delicate polychrome details in shades of blue and red. The face, with a serene expression, is enhanced by finely outlined eyes and a refined treatment of the hair.
The Buddha is depicted seated with legs crossed, hands raised upward in a contemplative attitude.
Completing the composition is a wide dome-shaped white fabric lampshade, with the characteristic sectoral shaping, adorned with turquoise-green and golden wavy trim along the lower edge.
The combination of figurative ceramics and the decorative lampshade gives the lamp an eclectic character, particularly suitable for Hollywood Regency, Boho Chic interiors and rooms with an Oriental taste.
Dimensions
Total height: 70 cm
Ceramic body: H 39 × L 31 × P 20 cm
Lampshade: height 30 cm × diameter 40 cm
Total weight: about 4 kg
Conditions
Good overall vintage condition, with normal signs of wear and aging. The ceramic has a glossy glazed surface, with slight irregularities and localized marks visible in the photographs. The lampshade shows normal signs of use.
The lamp is functional and tested; where necessary, the cable will be replaced to ensure safety. As it is a vintage setup, a professional inspection is still recommended.
Condition as per photographs, which are an integral part of the description.
