Condition
Overall in very good condition consistent with age and gentle use. The metal frame with minor scattered oxidation. The lamp shade has been replaced and presents with a very minor light brown mark to one lower corner, not visually disruptive. The shade fitter is slightly loose around the socket. Sotheby’s does not guarantee electrical components and recommends having all wiring inspected by a licensed electrician.
