Description :

Vintage Gilded Porcelain Peacock Lamp – 22" Tall

A glamorous fusion of Hollywood Regency and Chinoiserie Revival design. This mid-century porcelain lamp features a gourd-shaped vase hand-painted with a peacock amid florals and pine trees, set against a richly gilded ground. Mounted on a carved wood base and topped with a gold-trimmed fabric shade, it evokes both opulence and artistry.

Dimensions (Approx.):

  • Height with shade: 22 in.

  • Vase height (without shade): 18 in.

  • Shade diameter: 8 in.

Condition:

  • Cord and plug present; lamp powers on

Symbolism & Design Notes:

  • Peacock: Symbol of prosperity, dignity, and beauty in East Asian decorative arts

  • Florals: Represent longevity, abundance, and renewal

  • Gold ground: Associated with wealth and auspicious fortune

Additional Notes: Likely mid-century Asian export porcelain, later adapted for use as a lamp. The carved wood base and gold-trimmed shade enhance its Hollywood Regency glamour, while the peacock and pine motifs reflect Chinoiserie Revival elegance. A striking accent piece for vintage-inspired interiors, blending East Asian symbolism with mid-century decorative flair
