FAQs

Canton porcelain refers to ceramic wares decorated in Guangzhou, China, typically featuring colourful hand-painted enamel designs including figures, flowers, and birds for both domestic and export markets.

These pieces are constructed from high-fired ceramic or porcelain bases, often converted from vases or jars, featuring hand-applied polychrome enamels and fitted with wooden bases and electrical components.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-mixed mineral pigments, fine crazing in the glaze, variations characteristic of hand-painting, and historical export markings or unglazed foot rims.

These lamps can be incorporated as focal points on sideboards, consoles, or bedside tables, pairing the traditional hand-painted ceramic base with neutral contemporary lampshades to create a balanced aesthetic.

Clean the porcelain base gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid using harsh chemical cleaning agents that may damage the hand-painted enamel glazes.
