Description :

Vintage Mid-Century Art Deco Electric Potpourri or Lamp Base Jar – 6" x 7"

This striking two-tone lidded vessel features a rich cobalt blue glazed top and textured powder blue body, likely dating from the mid-century era with strong Art Deco and utility design elements. Marked on the lid with “PATENT NON DETACHABLE FITTING” and a central starburst logo, it may have originally served as a base for a small lamp or electric potpourri diffuser. The jar is constructed with a fitted lid, topped with a brass finial.

The form and label suggest a mid-20th century British or European origin, reflecting an era of design focused on both elegance and innovation. There is a minor crack near the patent stamp, visible but not structurally compromising.

Measurements: 6" tall x 7" wide


Note: Patent label, slight crack
