Vintage Occupied Japan Porcelain Courtly Couple Table Lamp

This is a vintage porcelain table lamp featuring a figural base of a courtly couple in 18th-century European style attire, common in 'Occupied Japan' or mid-century German-style ceramics. The base is constructed of glazed porcelain with hand-painted details. The male figure wears a bright yellow frock coat, a blue-patterned waistcoat, and striped breeches, while the female figure is adorned in a red bodice and a light blue skirt with floral motifs. They stand before a central porcelain pillar decorated with gold-leaf petal accents. The lamp hardware consists of a brown plastic socket with an integrated turn-knob switch and a standard two-prong power cord. The craftsmanship is typical of high-volume decorative exports from the mid-20th century (circa 1945-1955), showing molded details and fairly simple facial painting. Regarding condition, there is visible wear to the gold-leaf accents on the pillar, and the electrical components appear aged and may require rewiring for safety. The porcelain shows some surface grime and minor manufacturing imperfections like 'firing dots' but no major cracks or chips are immediately visible in the porcelain figures. The overall style is Rococo Revival, popular for vanity or boudoir lighting.
