Though its surface is swirling with a motif that was born in ancient culture, the Sakura Table Lamp is just as at home in the 21st century as it was eons ago. The pattern on the body of the blue and white porcelain lamp is a traditional cherry tree pattern revered by the Japanese as the symbolic flower of spring. Sakura, as these flowers are called in their culture, swims along this navy blue lamp sitting atop a steel base in a gold leaf finish.
