Condition
Overall in very good original condition. The glass throughout displays a wonderful example of the firms acid-etched decorative scheme. The glass with a few small and minor air bubbles that are inherent in the production. The lower rim of the shade with some minor surface scratches likely caused by the shade terminals abrading the glass as the shade was turned on the base. The shade armature with considerable oxidation and loss to patina. This oxidation is visible to the shade terminals in the catalogue illustration. The lamp is fitted with a single socket. The lamp displays nice scale and is a simple and elegant design when viewed in person.
