Condition
Please note this attractive light fitting will need to be re-wired by a qualified electrician.
It is nice quality but is tarnished in places. There is some spotting to the surface. There is surface dirt and it would benefit from a clean. Some element appear associated (eg the suspension chain) or perhaps later. It looks super but has a composite 'feel' about it. Please note it does not come with the lamp shades featured in the catalogue. A decorative light fitting on a pleasing scale which would benefit from some gentle attention.
