A CONTINENTAL ROCOCO REVIVAL PARCEL GILT POLYCHROME PORCELAIN FIGURAL LAMP, CIRCA 1900, in the Dresden taste, the scalloped edge, bell form shade, covered in cream color raw silk with matching gimp trim, over an onion form, above a Corinthian style capital, over a tapered standard joined to a twisted lower support, issuing a figure of Aphrodite at play with two cupids, floating on a cloud, raised on a square socle, ending in splayed, cabriole legs, with scroll feet; the whole encrusted in relief flower blooms and leaves. Height: 42 1/2" Diameter: 18"

A small tear approximately 1/2" inch on the shade. Likely converted from a gas lamp, some paint and gilt rubbing, mild chips and surface wear, but overall in very good condition, wear commensurate with age and use.
