Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Rose Medallion porcelain is a style of export ceramics characteristically decorated with panels depicting figures in interior settings alternated with panels of flowers, birds, and insects, bounded by foliage and scroll borders.

These lighting pieces typically combine a hand-painted ceramic body made from hard-paste porcelain with custom metalwork mounts cast in bronze or brass, which are often gilded to create an ormolu finish.

Authentic pieces display hand-painted enamel decoration with slight organic variations, heavy hand-chased metal mounts showing age-appropriate oxidisation, and precise fitting around the ceramic base and neck.

Position the lamp on a neutral console or sideboard to allow the intricate polychrome enamelling to serve as a focal point, paired with a simple silk or linen lampshade to complement the ornate base.

Dust the porcelain vessel gently with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh liquid cleansers on enamelled panels, and clean the metal mounts with a dry soft brush to maintain the gilded patina.
