Vintage 1970's Exotic Oriental Brass Table Lamp

Collectibles : Lamps, Lighting

 

Here is a fabulous cast brass electric lamp with cool dragon handles surrounding a scrolled neck at the top, and four panels of traditional Oriental themed designs around the center. We estimate it to be from the 1970's, as the exotic far east and the use of brass were much used in interior design at that time.

The panels are each about 3.75" wide at the top, narrowing to 2.5" across the bottom, and are 6.5" tall.

The designs include a panel with two herons and circular cloud sky, the next one to the right is a stylized flowering bonsai tree, the next to the right is an elegant panel of leaves and flowers of chrysanthemums, and the final one has delightfully graceful bamboo!

This measures 15" from table to the top of the brass below the socket; the built in angular harp is another 10" high to the top of the screw-in final top. It is nearly 5.5" across the base. This is weighted beautifully, so it stands sturdy and does not threaten to topple at all. This has a single power twist switch, and is in excellent working condition.

This is for the LAMP ONLY, WITHOUT a shade; Target & Ikea have fabulous and inexpensive shades, or vintage ones can be found here with us, or on other vintage websites, too.

This is heavy, so safe shipping will be $12-18 to most US destinations.
