I need some help identifying this vase that was turned into a lamp. There doesn't appear to be a mark on the bottom but it is really nicely hand painted and seems pretty old. Can anyone shed some light? Height: 14''

Thank you

From colors, shape, moderate quality enamel decoration, could be second quarter 20th century from China.

Some might tell more if take lamp apart and photograph bottom - show whole foot, straight on, in natural light. Photos at angle do not help viewers of image.

Good luck,
Cal
