Condition
Overall very good condition. The hand-wrought iron surfaces of both lanterns with some occasional very minor surface scratches and abrasions throughout and minor wear to the patina consistent with age and gentle handling. The original hammered glass with very minor scattered air bubbles and particulate inclusions inherent in the production. One pane on one lantern with slightly more pronounced surface irregularities inherent in the glass, not visually detractive. The ceiling lights retain their original ceiling plates and all accompanying hardware. An exceptionally elegant and sophisticated design by Gustav Stickley.
