Kitsch

Many would file this lamp base away in their kitsch folder. For me, I think that within the right context and interior, this lamp base could serve as a fantastic focal point/accent piece.


Note the Greek key trim and the fantastic hue of red she is sporting. She would be perfect to harmonize red accents in a space. Not to mention the dose of happy she would bestow.

So what I'm saying is, I love her. Kitsch or no.

(If you like her too, she's on Etsy)

  1. So funny! It must be geisha day. I just posted my figure I found yesterday. Mine is super kitsch, but I love her.

  2. When I was in Southeast Asia for work several years ago, I saw so many pieces similar to this that I started to think of it all as tacky kitsch. Then I got wise and started to think about how one or two pieces might look in my house, rather than shoved in between a bunch of other "tackiness." Thank goodness I didn't leave Asia without some delightful finds to help me remember my time there!
