Description:
Pair early 20th c. English (?) majolica jars mounted on a beautifully carved lacquered wood plinth and converted to lamps. The quality of the majolica jars which form the bases of these lamps is of the best. The archaic Chinese form, together with the striking deep turquoise blue and the carved Mayan or Aztec inspired hieroglyphics make these truly unique lamps. The carved lacquered plinth is similar in style and quality to known James Mont lamps. The majolica jars date to the early 20thc., they were converted to lamps in the mid century. The striking blue color in addition to their urn forms make these lamps perfectly suited to a mid-century style interior. Sold as a pair.
