What does this mean?

Thank you for contacting Mearto. This is a Chinese porcelain ginger jar converted into a lamp. There is a crackle effect on the surface of the piece and gold outlining in the painting. The base appears to be a hardwood, likely mahogany. It can be difficult to know whether this piece was sold as is or converted by someone who bought the lamp. From the design and condition of the vase, it appears to have been made in the 20th century, probably as export ware from China.
The Fair Market Value of this piece is between $50 and $150.
