When this lamp is disassembled, it has NIPPON marked at the bottom in black lettering. The lamp is mounted on a black ebony wood base which is again mounted on a brass stand.

This truly is a great lamp worthy of a Nippon Collection and can easily grace any stately home. The colors lend themselves to any great home décor!

WHAT IS NIPPON?
The word used in the back stamp of famous Asian china, "Nippon" simply means "Japan".  Nippon china was produced for export to the United States beginning in 1865, when the country ended its long period of commercial isolation, and ending in 1921, when the United States enforced the McKinley Tariff act which prohibited the import of items which were not plainly marked, stamped, branded or labeled in legible English words. As Nippon was considered the Japanese word for the country of origin, "Japan" being the English equivalent, the period of the Nippon china mark came to an end. Japan was also called Nihon Koku or Nippon Koku.
