Late 20th Century Theodore Alexander Meiji Style Crane & Turtle Table Lamp
The sculptural base features a verdigris-finished crane gracefully balanced atop a turtle, all resting on an octagonal faux tortoise and parquetry-style base. Rich textures, detailed casting, and the unexpected pairing of crane and turtle create a lamp that feels equal parts conversation piece and functional lighting.
The warm tones of the base complement the aged verdigris finish beautifully, while the sculptural silhouette adds character from every angle. A fantastic accent for a library, study, sunroom, or anywhere that could benefit from a little personality.

Presented in very good vintage condition with minor scuffs and light wear to the faux tortoise-finished base consistent with age and use. The verdigris crane and turtle sculpture retains a beautiful aged patina throughout. The lamp has been tested and is working properly. The lamp currently utilizes a shorter harp, which limits bulb size. A taller harp may easily be substituted if desired to accommodate a standard-size bulb or alternate shade. Shade included and shown for display purposes. Minor age-related wear throughout consistent with a vintage decorative lamp.
The vendor has confirmed this piece is in working order.
