This unusual complete Japanese bronze champlevé lantern standard lamp belongs to the Meiji period. The piece consists of a slender column base supporting an illuminated red glass lantern shade with enamelled foliage motifs, a pagoda top, and a hexagonal lantern shape. Materials include dark bronze, red glass, and enamel, complemented by champlevé enamel, vine leaves, and flower decoration, alongside old red silk inside the lantern and an original old patination. Measuring 160 cm high, 27 cm wide, and 27 cm deep, the lamp sits upright on an original base. Rewired with old style fabric cable, the floor lamp provides ambient illumination in a gentleman's library or an empty corner of a home today.

FAQs

A Japanese champleve standard lamp is a tall freestanding light feature crafted from cast bronze, featuring recessed cells filled with vitreous enamel decoration, typically dating from the Meiji or Taisho periods.

These lamps are primarily constructed from heavy cast bronze with multicoloured vitreous enamel detailing, often incorporating stained glass or horn panels within the lantern housing.

Authentic period examples exhibit significant weight, hand-finished metalwork with cast cell boundaries for enamel, and evidence of historical electrification or conversion from oil burners.

Position the lamp in an empty corner or beside a reading chair to provide ambient accent lighting while highlighting the contrast between dark metalwork and colourful glass.

Dust the surface regularly using a dry, soft cloth, avoiding liquid chemicals or abrasive polishes that may destabilise the enamel inserts or strip the patinated metal surface.
