Condition
Overall very good condition consistent with age and gentle use. A few scattered paint marks on the spheres which are not visually distracting. One minor surface scratch about 1 cm in width to the underside. Sothebys does not guarantee electrical components and suggests having all wiring inspected by a licensed electrician.
