- 58cm. high, 38cm. wide; 1ft. 10¾in., 1ft. 3in.
Condition
In good condition.. There are minor differences to the these wall lights- in particular one stem is differently cut and is a slightly different design from the other stems. Two lights have diamond cut top drip trays. One wall light is lacking drops above the twin acorn pendants. One pendant hanging below is differently cut from the others. They have been wired for electricity at some stage but the wires have been laid over the glass and brass fittings and the wiring will need to be completely replaced. Some elements could be old but it would be safer to say that they are mostly late 20th century.
