This exquisite vintage porcelain table lamp is a striking example of chinoiserie style, crafted from a hand-painted vase in the classic rose medallion pattern. The body is richly decorated with vibrant flora and fauna, detailed court scenes, and symbolic dragon imagery—showcasing both artistry and storytelling. Applied high-relief dragons climb the neck of the lamp, while sculptural foo dog handles on either side add a dimensional, mythical presence.

Originally a decorative vase, this piece has been thoughtfully converted into a functioning table lamp. It’s mounted on a hand-carved wooden pagoda-style base, fitted with a three-way switch for adjustable lighting, and topped with a brass finial. A flared fabric lampshade is included. 

A statement piece for lovers of Chinese export porcelain, chinoiserie interiors, and vintage lighting.

Lampshade available for pickup. If you would like the lampshade shipped to you, our team will coordinate additional fees.
