Famille Rose Chinese Porcelain Baluster Vase Table Lamp

This is a decorative table lamp featuring a converted Chinese Famille Rose porcelain vase as its primary body. The vase is of a baluster or pear-shaped form, decorated in the traditional Canton or Rose Medallion style with polychrome enamels. The neck is adorned with a turquoise ground featuring scrolling floral patterns and pink blossoms, transitioning into a white-ground body decorated with delicate floral sprays, butterflies, and foliage. A notable feature is the pair of reddish-orange lion mask lug handles with faux ring pulls applied to the sides. The porcelain sit atop a tiered, pierced brass or gilded metal base with a scalloped footer, suggesting a mid-20th-century conversion. The electrical cord is a standard brown domestic wire wrapped around the base. The lamp is topped with a cream-colored pleated fabric drum shade. Regarding condition, the porcelain appears intact without visible cracks, though there is some light wear to the enamel decorations and minor oxidation on the metal base components. The shade shows minor staining and age-related yellowing. The craftsmanship reflects typical export quality porcelain from the late 19th or early 20th century, later mounted as a functional lamp for the Western market.
