Condition

Good overall condition. The patinated copper presents with a few tiny scratches and some very light wear, consistent with age and use. The gilt bronze is tarnished overall, with some light handling wear on the head and presents with a few small oxidation stains and a few tiny vert-de-gris stains (with a more visible one above the proper right eye). Some light soiling on the glass. Sotheby's does not guarantee electrical components and suggests having all wiring inspected by a licensed electrician.
