This pair of exquisitely crafted Italian table lamps was created by sculptor Edoardo Tasca. Each lamp features a finely crafted porcelain sculptural base depicting a meditating Buddha, embellished with cobalt blue accents and exquisite gold details. The figure rests on an elegant square base of polished gold metal and black wood, topped by a height-adjustable metal stem that supports a contoured light-colored fabric lampshade with matching trimmings. This piece is part of the limited-edition "Scultura Viva" ("Living Sculpture") collection and dates back to the late 1970s and 1980s. Stylistically, the piece blends a distinctly Hollywood Regency and modern vintage style with the allure of artistic figurative Orientalism, representing a perfect example of Made in Italy decorative excellence and artistic craftsmanship.
