Description: Up for sale is this rare and antique Chinese cloisonné enamel over copper vase in the “tianquiping” globular bottle form with bulbous vase and straight neck. I believe this vase dates to either Qianlong or Jiaqing period, perhaps late 18th / early 19th C. Highly decorated and colorful with blue cloisonné ground and other lovely colors including, green, red, white, and black. Fantastic details here with ruyi border in the mid-section, flowering blossoms, vine scrolls, and lower section of alternating white and blue ground. The vase was drilled at the base and turned into a lamp likely in the early 20th C, perhaps in France as we see a fancy bronze ormolu vine scroll base and fancy decorative cap on top. The lamp does work and has been tested, as shown in the photo with the light bulb on. In quite excellent condition for its age with just a couple very tiny and minor areas of enamel loss. Other wear consistent with age but really no major issues. The vase itself measures about 10.75” inches tall and 7” inches wide (27.3 cm, 17.8 cm). The bronze ormolu base adds 1.5” inches in height (3.8 cm). From the bottom to the top of the lamp parts, this piece measures about 23.5” inches tall (59.7 cm). Would make a fantastic display piece, fine addition to a collection, or a great gift! One of many collectible arts available this week!
