Condition
Very good overall condition. The shade with approximately 15-18 cracks to the glass scattered throughout. The base with a superb reddish brown and green mottled patina with only light rubbing to the areas of high relief as expected from age and gentle use. The oil font has been converted for electricity and has a period socket and switch. The reticulated gallery to the top of the oil font with some minor bending along the upper register which would benefit from minor adjustment. A very pleasing and successful unit with a rare sculptural base. The shade with particularly fine leading that bears a deep russet brown and green patina.
