Antique Chinese Elder in Yellow Robe Table Lamp

$363.75 $485.00

Stunning, antique Chinese lamp, presenting a Chinese elder, or scholar. The scholar stands upon a tiered brass stand that has Asian influence in its shape. The elder wears a pale yellow robe that has been hand painted with tiny geometric pattern. He holds in his left hand, a staff, and any other hand a golden painted fruit. This is a wonderful old piece.

Lampshade not included
Harp is permanently attached to the cradle of the lamp, finial is not present

30 inches tall to the top of the finial screw
23 inches tall to the top of the socket by 9 inches deep by 11 1/2 inches wide

Powers on, standard US bulb and cord, the cord is an older cord however, it was replaced at some point in time and is not the original cord. 250 V, 250 W, the power switch is a push button at the back of the brass base.

Ceramic is a nice condition, no chips, no cracks. There is some minor loss of gold paint along the edges and to some of the red paint. The permanently, affixed harp is slightly misshapen, this would have no impact, but we want you to be aware. Socket and harp show some tarnish, brass base has very minor tarnish.
