Elegant antique porcelain lamp base crafted from an authentic Haviland Limoges "Tarascon" pitcher, produced in France circa late 19th to early 20th century. The white porcelain body features soft blue floral sprays with delicate gilt accents, a flared scalloped foot, and a gracefully curved handle and spout.

This piece was professionally converted into a lamp in the early-mid 20th century, retaining its original brass socket, harp, and cloth-wrapped cord with early Underwriters Laboratories inspection tag, adding to its period authenticity and charm.

Offered as-is and without a lampshade, allowing the next owner to customize styling while preserving the original character. A beautiful accent for traditional, French country, or cottage-style interiors.
