Antique Chinese Turquoise glazed ceramic lamp mould Sancai figures 8 Immortals

Description: this tremendous Antique chinese molded sancai figures of the 8 immortals from the Tang Dynasty ? (all the pieces that I found with any of these figures is Tang.. but I cannot Authenticate this) Lamp with silk shade comes to me from an 83 year old consignor who was the granddaughter of Elizabeth Schnaider and Joseph Schnaider from St. Louis Missouri ( owners of the Green Tree Brewery and Beer Garden which was later sold to Anhauser Bush) who lived in one of the largest homes in St Louis .. on Westmoreland and Portland Place .The lamp was passed down by her mother and has been in the family for over 100 years.. .might have started its life as a vase? but has a lamp base and old electrical cord which is taped.. obviously working..and rewired but quite a while ago.many different figures around the girth of the lamp. which probably tell a story but I have no idea what that is.condition is quite good for such an old daily used item..these is generalized crazing in the porcelain and there are some small losses near the top where the neck widens to meet the hardware. Height of the lamp / vase itself is 15" and the girth is 25" around the widest part.. height to top of the finial is 30" the current Asian inspired shade .. silk?.. is in decent not torn condition with a few small spots mainly on the inside.. not sure what the finial is made of..I will pack this in a super large box with lots of bubbles to protect.. probably double boxed for safety and will require some insurance, all of which will be determined when the auction ends. Without a box, this weighs 5 kg. Happy to sell this lamp locally so that it won't need to be packed and shipped.
