Vintage Mid-Century Blue Willow Porcelain Oil Lamp Set with Reflector Plate - 4-Piece Chinoiserie Kerosene Lamp, Made in Japan
Description:
A gorgeous, complete 4-piece vintage Blue Willow porcelain oil lamp set featuring the classic cobalt blue and white Chinoiserie transferware design. This style was highly popular as an export decorative novelty from Japan during the mid-20th century.
This is a beautiful, complete accent piece perfect for Grandmillennial, French Country, or traditional blue-and-white home decor. It can be sat on a table or mounted to a wall using the metal frame.
The set includes:
1. Blue Willow ceramic/porcelain oil font base
2. Brass-toned burner assembly with turning knob
3. Removable 6-inch Blue Willow ceramic reflector plate
4. Clear glass chimney tube
Excellent vintage display condition. Absolutely no chips, cracks, or hairline fractures in the porcelain or glass.There is a small line in the glass that happened during manufacture but only noticeable up close.
Please note that as is standard with authentic vintage transferware, there are beautiful, natural minor variations in the shades of blue between the pieces from production. The piece features no permanent manufacturer backstamps (originally bore a paper export label common for this era). Comes without a cotton wick, which can be easily sourced cheaply online if you intend to burn lamp oil. Approx Eur2 to buy wick.
Dimensions: 24 cm total height.
