Condition
Overall very good condition. When viewed in person the green leaves display with slightly more nuanced coloration with slightly stronger yellow undertones. The shade with fewer than five cracks dispersed throughout, all stable. The shade with surface soiling throughout concentrated to the contours adjacent to the leadlines. The base is in overall very good condition with scattered minor surface scratches, abrasions and areas of light wear to the patina consistent with age and gentle use. The base with some surface soiling, scattered minor discolorations and some minor traces of oxidation. The bronze with some extremely minor occasional casting flaws and surface irregularities inherent in the making and not visually detractive. With a period “Bamboo” finial in very good condition. With later replaced sockets. A very charming and graphic shade design with complementary base.
