The heavy bronze has been inset with champlevé in a design of a Chinese Taotie mask. It has an archaic Chinese Hu shape with peg like handles on the side, and is well cast with many deep details and a deep antique bronze patina. It was lamped in the twenties and has an old cord.
A molded mark on the base reads MADE IN JAPAN.
As an aside, I a couple of years ago I saw a print from the 1920’s that showed a lamp just like this one, with women in period (flapper) clothing.
