Vintage German Porcelain Perfume Lamp Night Light Poodle 5738

1950s vintage German porcelain perfume poodle lamp night light is a charming and decorative item that reflects both the eras aesthetic and the craftsmanship of German porcelain makers. These lamps were popular as both functional and decorative pieces and typically served as night lights with a subtle fragrance feature. Porcelain perfume lamps include a small basin or recess, typically near the bulb, where you could place a few drops of perfume or essential oil. The heat from the bulb then gently diffuse the scent into the room. This lamp has a small hole at the back of the head with a fairly sizable basin to add any perfume or essential oils you like. This collectible lamp is in excellent damage free condition no chips or cracks. Cosmetically the hand painted collar detail has some paint that is missing at the back- it appears that perfume has dripped down and the alcohol has removed the paint. The left eye has some white residue that I am nervous to remove for fear of damaging the paint or the glass eye. I will leave that to it's next home to determine if it should be removed or left. The lamp is identified by batch number 5738 on the bottom.
