Condition

Overall in very good condition. The metal elements with minor scattered rubbing and oxidation throughout consistent with age. The glass shades with minor scattered air bubbles and particulate inclusions inherent in production. The mounting holes of each shade with very minor flecks consistent with age and are not visible when installed. The screw cap to one lamp holder is missing as visible in the printed and online catalogs. A very good example of the collaboration between Brandt and Daum in very good condition.
