Condition
Overall in good original condition; with usual dirt to surface and especially to crevices; the cold-painted polychromy is original and present but note that there are some wear and chips to this cold-painted polychromy in a few places and especially to areas of high relief; it is a table lamp and the light and wiring have not been accessed and we would advise the buyer to rewire the lamp.
