This is a large “non-matching” pair of Japanese lamps.
These lamps have been made by converting “ginger jars”
Originally two early storage jars they have been converted to lamps and mounted on to hard wood bases . Each with individual control buttons. This is likely to have occurred at the turn of the century
Each jar has a pastoral scene of ladies and ladies in waiting .
The colours used are predominately gold , ochre and browns of varying shades .
The detail of the moths and butterflies is stunning I enclose some close up pictures.
You are welcome to view these pieces in the shop.. or request further images.

The overall height of the jars to tip of the lid is 48cm
The most bulbous upper section is approx 31cm across.
The overall diameter of the shade is 47cm
They come complete with neutral pleated shades
They are free from restoration and in overall pristine condition. Superb large statement piece
