Condition
Generally very good overall condition. The wiring and sockets are replaced. The shades are well matched and have some surface dirt with age. Two of the shades are caught on the sockets and are able to be rotated, but would need adjustment from a restorer to remove them from their current fittings. The other two shades are in very good overall condition. There are some scattered chips to the hanging prisms, one of which is lacking. There is some rubbing and verdigris to the patina as expected and a appears to be untouched.
