Chinoiserie Hand Painted Toleware Style Table Lamp with Faux Bamboo Trim and Botanical Iris Decoration - A large decorative table lamp featuring a rectangular body with indented corners and a faux-bamboo frame. The body is finished in black lacquer with hand-painted botanical illustrations. The primary face depicts a red iris in bloom emerging from a bulb, while the reverse side shows the same plant in its foliage stage without the flower (photo 8). The side panels are decorated with a gold-tone repeating lattice and dot pattern. The faux-bamboo structural elements are highlighted with gold-tone and red accents. The lamp is topped with a tiered caddy-style cap, a brass-tone socket, and a decorative cast metal finial in a pinecone or acorn form. The lamp is paired with an empire-style black paper shade featuring a metallic gold-tone neoclassical anthemion and scroll border around the lower rim and a gold-tone interior. The electrical components include a standard brown plastic-insulated cord and a two-prong plug. No maker marks, labels, or signatures are visible on the exterior of the base or the shade.Total Height: 28 inchesShade Diameter: 17 inchesBase Height: 14.5 inches.
