ANTIQUE #SA903098

An Impressive Late 19th Century Japanese Figural Bronze Lamp

Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: Culvertons

We could see why this fine quality Japanese bronze (signed - Circa 1890) was converted to a lamp during the first half of the 20th Century - it''s because, it was perfectly suited to such a transition. The child is portrayed trying to catch something just out of sight, the light shade tantalisingly obscures his quarry, drawing the viewer ever closer towards the light. The bronze is mounted upon its original carved wooden base, both patinated bronze and base retain a lustrous colour. Now sensitively restored and safety tested, this impressive lamp (69.5 cm high) is ready to be used and enjoyed.
