Condition
Overall very good condition. When viewed in person the shade presents with vibrant green and rich ochre hues. The shade with approximately 4 cracks to the glass tiles dispersed throughout. With only some extremely minimal surface soiling to the adjacent contours of the shade leading. The “Bamboo” base in very good condition with scattered minor surface scratches and abrasions consistent with age and gentle use. The bronze with a few scattered casting flaws throughout, not visually detractive. The base with some traces of oxidation to the recessed contours near the socket cluster, with more oxidation throughout the foot of the base and on the fronds. All sockets appear to be period. With a period finial in very good condition. A beautifully proportioned floor lamp that is both graphic and naturalistic in its aesthetic.
