Pair of 19th-20th Century Pâte-sur-Pâte Porcelain and Gilt-Bronze Table Lamp

About the Item

A fine pair of French 19th-20th century Pâte-sur-Pâte Porcelain and gilt-bronze mounted ovoid-shaped table lamps with a white low-relief floral design carved in slip and applied to a contrasting body over the blue-green porcelain, Paris, circa 1900. Pâte-sur-pâte is a French term meaning "paste on paste". It is a method of porcelain decoration in which a relief design is created on an unfired, unglazed body by applying successive layers of white slip (liquid clay) with a brush. The effect is somewhat similar to other types of relief decoration such as Jasperware, but as a mould is not normally used, the artist is able to achieve translucency. Measures: Overall height 23 inches (58.4 cm) Height to top of porcelain: 11 5/8 inches (29.5 cm) Width 5 inches (12.7 cm) Depth 5 inches (12.7 cm).
