Condition
Overall in very good condition. Two of the favrile glass shades with a few very minute and small edge flecks around the top aperture of the shades (not at all visible when the shades are installed). The base is in exceptional condition, displaying a rich russet brown and green patina and superb casting. The bronze surfaces with very minimal gentle rubbing. The sockets and switch appear to be original and undisturbed, and all of the shade screws are intact. A superb example of this rare desk lamp model.
