Condition

Overall in very good condition. The patinated bronze surfaces throughout display a rich patina of russet brown and green. The bronze surfaces with some occasional light surface scratches, abrasions and light rubbing concentrated to the high points of the design consistent with age and gentle handling. The favrile glass which is blown through the bronze reticulations appears to be original and undisturbed, with some light surface soiling along the edges adjacent to the metalwork. The lower portion of the standard of this lot with a delicate pineapple decorative scheme. A wonderful example of the firm’s metalwork design showcasing a rich patina throughout.
