Asian-Inspired Ginger Jar Table Lamp

This item is a decorative table lamp featuring an Asian-inspired design. The lamp consists of a body resembling a ginger jar, a pleated fabric lampshade, and a wooden base. The lamp body is crafted from what appears to be ceramic or porcelain with a pale yellow or cream glaze. It is adorned with a hand-painted or decal decoration depicting a vibrant flowering tree in shades of red, orange, and green, suggestive of a cherry blossom or similar ornamental tree. Small birds, possibly a bluebird, are perched among the branches, and butterflies or moths are shown fluttering around the tree. The artwork has a traditional Asian brushwork feel. The lamp rests on a dark brown, possibly stained wood, circular base with a slightly fluted or carved edge. A cream-colored, pleated fabric lampshade tops the lamp, exhibiting vertical pleats that create a textured and diffused light effect when illuminated. The shade appears to be in fair condition, with some visible signs of age or wear, including possible discoloration or light staining along some of the pleats, suggesting it might be an older piece. There are no visible manufacturer's marks or signatures in the provided image. The overall style suggests an age perhaps from the mid-20th century to late 20th century, consistent with decorative lamps popular in traditional or Chinoiserie interior design. The craftsmanship of the painted body seems to be of a reasonable quality for mass-produced decorative items, with clear details in the botanical illustration. The lamp's functionality cannot be assessed from the image alone, but it appears to be complete with its shade and base.
