Poul Henningsen

Overall good original condition. The patinated bronze surfaces of the standard display a deep and rich russet brown patina. The patinated surfaces with some occasional light surface scratches, light rubbing, and surface soiling to the recessed contours of the design consistent with age and gentle use. The top surface of the base with a few concentrated areas of discoloration. The sockets and switch appear original and undisturbed. The three glass shades with a few minor scattered surface scratches, minute edge abrasions and a few scattered air bubbles inherent in the making. Each of the three shades presents with a consistent soft amber hue and are a well matched set. A very good original condition example of this form.
