Condition
Overall very good condition. This is an excellent example of the model in original condition. The white painted portion of the shade with some discoloration consistent with age and use. The yellow painted shade with some rubbing and surface dirt. The cord appears replaced. The eyehook at the top of the shade is intact. A stunning design when viewed in person.
