Condition
Very good overall condition. The shade with approximately 5-7 cracks to the glass scattered throughout. There is one small paint drip to the shade that would benefit from being cleaning. The leading on the shade is gilt which is consistent with the gilt wheel. The finial, riser and base have a rich green-brown patina with some light surface scratches, rubbing and minor areas of surface discoloration consistent with age and gentle use. The sockets and switches all appear to be original. With period finial. A particularly fine example of this rare shade model with an attractive and varied autumn color palette.
