Chinese Cobalt Blue Floral Table Lamp

This is a Chinese-style table lamp featuring a striking cobalt blue ceramic body with intricate gold floral designs. The main body of the lamp is an urn or ginger jar shape, tapering slightly towards the top and bottom with a distinct shoulder and a separate lid-like topper that integrates into the lamp's design. The floral motifs, rendered in applied gold, appear to depict chrysanthemums or similar Asian flora, with detailed leaves and branches, creating a rich contrast against the deep blue glaze. The glazes appear even and glossy, indicating quality porcelain or ceramic work. The lamp is mounted on a decorative brass base, which consists of a circular ring supported by three curved legs or feet, elevating the ceramic body slightly off the resting surface. This base shows some visible patina consistent with age, but no significant damage or tarnishing that detracts from its overall appearance. The lamp is topped with a simple, cream or beige-colored fabric drum lampshade, which offers a soft diffusion of light. The brass finial and harp mechanism connecting the shade to the ceramic body show general wear appropriate for a used lamp. The electrical cord is visible, brown in color, and appears to be in working order. The lamp's design strongly suggests an Asian-inspired decorative piece, likely from the mid to late 20th century, probably intended for an accent or living room setting. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, with no immediately visible chips, cracks, or repairs to the ceramic body.
