Condition

Overall in very good condition. The shades display a vibrant emerald green coloration. Each of the finials that are inset with glass with a few minor hairline cracks. One of the glass finials with some minor chips to the high points of the glass near the outer perimeter, not visually distracting and only visible upon close inspection. The shades with some light surface soiling concentrated to the recessed contours, consistent with age. The bronze surfaces of the bases and shade trimming displays a rich brown patina. The bases are in overall very good condition with scattered minor surface scratches and abrasions, consistent with age and gentle handling. One base with a small vertical discoloration at mid-height of the urn form measuring approximately 3 ½ inches high, not visually distracting. Each lamp with sockets and paddle switches which appear to be original and undisturbed. A rare and highly desirable pair from Tiffany’s Art Deco-inspired “Linenfold” series displaying superb, rich coloration.
