An exquisite red ground 19th century, Japanese Meiji period, enamel cloisonne vase, later converted to a lamp.

A rare red cloisonne vase from the 19th century, featuring a decorative blossom, floral scene with a native bird and layer converted to a lamp sometime in the early 20th century.

A fine quality cloisonne vase to lamp with a striking red ground colour, measuring 44cm to the brass bulb housing and supported upon a custom made, wooden round base.

The vase-lamp is in excellent structural and aesthetic condition, with a brass bayonet bulb housing, the lamp will require a rewire.
