Condition
Overall condition very good, with the exception of a small indent to the top rim of one lamp that would benefit from professional attention. In our opinion this issue does not adversely affect the overall attractive appearance of the pair. One of the glass liners appears to be a replacement in keeping with the original - with a very slightly different tone. The reflective interior paint may have been refreshed - but again in keeping with the original. The counter balance mechanisms to each lamp is present and in full working condition.
