The squared body is adorned with vibrant peonies and foliage in a palette of coral, green, and blue, set against a crisp white glaze. The lamp is mounted on a traditional stepped brass base and topped with its original tall drum-style fabric shade, stamped by Edwards Shades—a respected mid-century American lamp shade maker known for quality and craftsmanship.

The harp is marked WESCAL, indicating American assembly, likely in the 1950s–1970s, using a Japanese export porcelain body. Original cord also indicates pre-1970 manufacturing. The overall look is refined, warm, and well-suited for traditional, eclectic, or Hollywood Regency interiors. The original shades are included upon request, they will require fabric replacement as the silk outer fabric has become fragile over time and has multiple vertical slits cut into it. The interior of the shades are intact but spotted. Can provide more photos if desired.

Brass bases show wear on edges as well as black scuff marks on the top of the surface.
Porcelain sits slightly eschew on the bases but are solidly attached, so it appears to be intentional. Visible in photos

One cord appears to have had a bad encounter with a vacuum and has quite a few locations were you can see copper wire. Lamp still works but would definitely recommend a new cord for one of the lamps. Please see photo. See less
