    Description

    This sale is for
    what I believe to be an
    Asian Metal Tea Caddy turned  into a Lamp.
    featuring Repousse, sharp relief flying dragons.
    ** I don't know much about this lamp. When I found it, I thought
    it was originally a tea caddy; now after googling a bit
    I'm seeing a lot of trench art / shell casing art that has really similar
    flyling dragon motifs done in  high relief repousse.
    The plug on the
    lamp tells me it was turned into a lamp sometime
    around the 1950s60s. The caddy has a wood top with a few holes
    in it, where it once either held a knob or something.
    THis is copper colored metal, either all copper or copper
    over brass or some other metal..I"m really not sure about
    the type of metal.
    The canister alone is 7".  Including the
    socket the height is 10".
    quick shipping
    non-smoking
    thanks!
