Vintage Ornate Ceramic Table Lamp with Rose Motif

This is an ornate vintage or antique table lamp, likely from the early to mid-20th century, possibly ceramic or porcelain with a decorative metal base. The lamp base is primarily off-white or cream-colored, featuring intricate raised gold detailing, possibly gold gilt or paint, which gives it a rich, textured appearance. The body of the lamp is amphora-shaped, with two large, decorative scroll-like handles in gold, extending from the neck to the mid-section. A prominent feature is the hand-painted purple rose with green leaves on a pale blue or aqua background, centrally located on the front of the lamp body, showcasing a delicate artistic touch. The base of the lamp is a stepped, rectangular metal structure with ornate embossed patterns, appearing to be brass or bronze, adding stability and a classic touch. The lamp is topped with a cream or off-white fabric lampshade, which exhibits visible signs of age and wear, including tears or fraying along the bottom edge, discoloration, and small dark spots. The electrical cord and plug are visible, suggesting it is a functional electric lamp, though the cord appears somewhat aged. There is also a brass-toned light socket visible beneath the lampshade. The overall condition suggests significant patina and wear consistent with age, particularly on the lampshade, while the ceramic body appears to be in relatively good condition, though detailed inspection would be needed to identify any chips or cracks. The craftsmanship suggests a manufactured decorative item, rather than a unique artisan piece. The design aesthetic points towards a Victorian, Edwardian, or Art Nouveau influence, given the floral motif, ornate handles, and metallic accents.
