Green Chinoiserie Table Lamp

About the Item

A very decorative Chinoiserie candlestick lamp, painted with oriental motifs on green ground. Probably English, mid-20th century. Decoration distressed. Why we like it A very chic small lamp to add a playful accent to an eclectic interior. Style Oriental lacquer was highly prized in Europe and had been used in furniture-making since the 17th century.
