Vintage Squirrel Crest Table Lamps Pair, Hand Painted Floral Ceramic Lamps, Pink Rose Lamps, Ornate Filigree Bases

A wonderfully unusual matched pair of vintage ceramic table lamps featuring hand-painted floral decoration, ornate painted metal bases, and a distinctive crest-like design with squirrels.

Each lamp has a creamy ivory ceramic body decorated on one side with a colorful bouquet of pink roses and other flowers. The opposite side features what appears to be a hand-painted crest or heraldic-style motif with a squirrel on either side, giving this pair a particularly charming and unusual personality.

The ceramic bodies rest on elaborate two-tier pierced metal filigree bases. Both the bases and vase caps are painted white. The white painted finish has chips and areas of wear, allowing some of the darker metal beneath to show through. I think this aged finish suits the lamps beautifully, but please review the photographs carefully for condition.

Each lamp has a push-through socket switch. The white electrical cords are older and not polarized. They are being sold with their vintage wiring intact.

Measurements, each lamp:

21" tall to the top of the finial
15" tall to the top of the socket
Base approximately 4.75" square
