Description :
Vintage Seyei Blanc-de-Chine Style Porcelain Guanyin Lamp
Porcelain table lamp featuring a standing Guanyin figure in flowing robes, executed in a white “blanc-de-chine” style glaze. The figure holds a lotus blossom and stands on a lotus pedestal base. Mounted on a black wood plinth with brass hardware and paired with a fabric shade decorated with white branch motifs. Retains its original foil label: “Fine Seyei China – Nagoya Japan.”
Maker: Seyei China, Nagoya, Japan
Date: Mid-20th c. (c. 1960s–1970s)
Material: Glazed porcelain, wood base, brass fittings, fabric shade
Form: Guanyin (Kannon) figure adapted as a table lamp
Mark: Original red foil Seyei China label
Dimensions: 34" H (with shade), 20" H (figure), 13" W, base dia. 8" Historical Context: Guanyin, the bodhisattva of compassion, is a central figure in East Asian Buddhism, often shown with a lotus as a symbol of purity. The white glaze recalls the blanc de chine porcelain tradition of Dehua, China, popular since the Ming dynasty. Collecting Note: Seyei adapted blanc-de-chine style figures for export during the 1950s–1970s, when Asian-inspired décor was in demand. Labeled examples, especially complete with shades, remain desirable among collectors of Japanese mid-century porcelain.
