Old abacus lamp base, Chinese suanpan "lotus-flower brand"

Handcrafted with the same care as the traditional abacuses from which it originates, this lamp base transforms a piece of Chinese craftsmanship into a decorative item of rare elegance. The thirteen rods adorned with wooden beads retain all the charm of the suànpán, while the sculpted base adds a refined touch. On the side, the "Lotus-Flower Brand" plaque, accompanied by its Chinese inscription, affirms its authenticity and highlights its artisanal origin, making this item a sought-after piece. The electrical cable, completely concealed within a central tube as shown in the photo, enhances the purity of the silhouette. More than just a simple light fixture, it is an ethnographic piece rich in history, perfect for illuminating an interior while celebrating Chinese heritage.
