Condition
Generally very good overall condition. Base appears to be repatinated. Lamp has been rewired. The glass is slightly less purple in person when compared to the catalogue illustration. The glass has some minor scattered inclusions and has one large bubble inclusion in one of the amber striations, which is visible in the catalogue illustration. Minor stray marks to the matte areas as expected.
