Condition
Overall in very good condition. The patinated bronze surfaces display a particularly rich and vibrant green and russet brown patina. The bronze surfaces throughout with minimal surface wear and rubbing to the patina consistent with age and gentle use. The three sockets and paddle switches all appear original and undisturbed. As seen in the catalogue illustration, this base is presently lacking a wheel above the riser element, which would need to be replaced in order to be used as a functional base. This component can be easily sourced by a number of Tiffany restorers.
