Description

A superb pair of Japanese Satsuma lamps from the Meiji period in excellent condition dating from around 1890. The lamps have exquisite detail to the hexagonal bodies that are painted with figures in landscapes.

The hand painted detail is quite exceptional with figures in kimono and traditional dress before a beautiful lake scene in rural landscape set into framed panels. The surrounding millefiore background is beautifully gilded and profusely detailed everywhere with typical Japanese motifs and large chrysanthemum blooms.

Both are signed to the base by the artist.

The lamps are recently rewired with modern braided cable in keeping with the period and come with a pair of new pleated silk shades that suit the style nicely.

These measure 65 cms in height overall with the shades being 35 cms in diameter.
