This highly collectible piece showcases classic Italian Majolica craft, featuring a beautiful hummingbird resting among textured, hand-carved (sgraffito style) florals, deep purple blossoms, and vibrant yellow petals over a sky-blue backdrop. The upper ceramic neck is styled like a circus-striped melon jar lid in rich burgundy-brown and cream glazes. The electrical assembly features a premium vintage dual-light brass cluster with independent functional ball-link pull chains, allowing you to control your lighting levels perfectly. Important Condition Notes: This lamp suffered a structural break around the bottom rim. There is a prominent fracture line extending across the lower hexagonal foot panel. One curved segment has broken away cleanly from the rim. This detached shard is included in the package so that the new owner can glue or epoxy it back into position. When resting flat on a table, the lamp remains upright and balanced. Please inspect all high-resolution macro photos carefully to assess the crack site. This listing includes the ceramic lamp base and the detached pottery chip only; a lampshade is not included. It is an extraordinary restoration candidate or a gorgeous maximalist accent piece just as it is.
