The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

Overall good condition, areas of wear and a few occasional scuffs and abrasions to surfaces commensurate with age and handling. The fabric and glass shates are later replacements. Central shaft of each lamp with light tilting generating from the joints of the upper and lower sections with the central ebonised wood element, which could be improved upon with professional care. Overall, an attractive pair of the very rare design, of great scale and presence, ready for immediate display.
