France, late 19th Century.Porcelainand gilt bronze.Conservation: good. An interesting pair of lamps made assembling porcelain (potbelly vase and glass) and bronze parts (base, connection ring and area for the candle). The porcelain is decorated with polychrome enamels of the Chinese porcelain 'famille rose' palette: the illustration shows Chinoiserie scenes with Chinese characters, flowers, birds, objects, insects and inscriptions that closely evoke the original Chinese models, in particular porcelains produced in Canton and exported to Europe. h 72,5 cm
