Condition
Overall very good original condition. The metal elements of the table lamp present with a beautiful original patina and some very light possible discolorations from age. The surfaces are consistent throughout. The upper shade elements move with ease, and the lamp is electrical stable. Presently with US plugs. The switch appears original and functional.
