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.
In stable condition and ready to hang. With the expected rubbing and oxidization of ormolu. The patinated bronze with a slight buildup of surface dirt and rubbing to edges. The glass apparently original and with very little wear. With some areas of paint residue throughout. Possibly originally conceived with a lower finial. Would benefit from a professional cleaning. Drilled and wired for electricity. Please note Christie's does not guarantee the working order of lighting.
