Condition

Overall in very good condition. The metal frames appear to have been repainted at one point and present with minor isolated areas of paint chips and oxidation which are not visually distracting. The shells with minor chips and flecks inherent in the material. The glass with very minor fine surface scratches throughout. A fine example of Duquette’s maximalist designs.
