About the Item

19th century antique Japanese Meiji bronze floor lamp. This finely cast, well composed, pedestal lamp depicts mythical creatures on the base, cranes in high relief on the stem areas and birds among rocks and trees on the upper section. Each section divided by elaborate patterns. The lamp dismantles into four pieces. This size is unusual, more often they were produced in table top proportions. Its beautiful patina is a traditional Japanese finish found on bronze item's from the period. Not shown: at some point in its history, the lamp was fitted with an insert for oil or kerosine. The insert is stamped Made in USA. The insert was later adapted again, to electrify the lamp. The bottom of the lift-out insert was drilled to accommodate electrical wiring. Photos available upon request.
