This baluster-shaped lamp is said to be monumental due to its exceptional dimensions. Its powder-blue color is the result of a technique that first appeared during the reign of Kangxi (1662-1722): cobalt blue is blown directly onto the body of the piece through a bamboo tube, at the end of which a gauze is placed. This process reveals a sprinkling of small, more or less dark spots, giving it a slightly iridescent appearance. This vase is mounted on a bronze base that was added later. This lamp is electrified, and we are presenting it with a basic lampshade to give customers a choice of color and shape, which does not justify shipping costs.
