Antique Hautin Boulenger HB & Cie Choisy-le-Roi Rooster Vase Lamp. Beautiful porcelain vase lamp with a hand painted scene in front 3 chickens, not sure who is a rooster or a hen. It was difficult to get good pictures of the scene because it is dark and because of the reflections caused by the shiny glaze. The back side has 4 flowers painted on it that look like daisies. The background is a very dark green that varies in darkness in some places. It is topped with a shiny glaze that has some crazing to the finish but only evident on very close inspection. Perfect condition, nothing broken, damaged or repaired as far as the porcelain part goes. Both pull chain sockets work correctly and the cord has been recently replaced because it is a more modern cord, not a cloth wrapped cord, which this piece probably originally had when it was new about 100 years ago. The fitting on top of the vase appears to be a brass or bronze cup that looks as if it has been painted at one point. The scene is signed on the front left, which looks to be “Bole” but not sure. Measures 22 tall to the top where a shade can rest. The widest spot of the porcelain is approx. Currently it has a 2″ riser finial at the top to make the shade stand up 2″ taller. The bottom is marked with incised marks, a paper label and a black ink mark of H B C inside a circle. We will consider reasonable offers, anything less than reasonable will be rejected.
