Overall in good condition. The stone base presents with some minor scratches, nicks, and some surface residue consistent with age and gentle use. Iron surface displays some evidence of minor rusting, scratches, and surface dust, consistent with the natural aging process of the material over time. The glass shades present with minor scratches, and all possess a lovely dappled appearance. The lamp is fitted with an American two prong socket, but Sotheby's does not guarantee electrical components and suggests having all wiring inspected by a licensed electrician.
