Condition

Overall in very good original condition. The standard of the lamp retains a nice patina with a few scattered minor surface scratches, light rubbing to the patina and surface dirt the recessed portions of the design. The shades with bold color which are slightly more saturated than they appear in the catalogue photograph when viewed in person. The catalogue photograph was taken with the shades lightly illuminated. The shades with a few minute surface scuffs and shallow scratches from use. A nice pairing between the shades with only subtle difference in the mottling of the glass. The shades are not removable from the standard, unless the electrical is cut and the sockets removed. Electrically stable.
