Condition

Overall in very good condition. The plastic coating on the wire frame with a few chips concentrated to the base and are not visually disruptive. The flexile metal cable with oxidation throughout as visible in the catalogue illustration. The glass with minor discolouration concentrated near the base and appears to be inherent in production. Sotheby's does not guarantee electrical components and recommends having all wiring inspected by a licensed electrician.
