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 commensurate with use. The plaster presents with light soiling and very minor wear including a deep line around the circumference of the indentation at the top of the stem; and minor incision along the mid stem (1⁄2 in.); an adjacent minor incision (approximately 1⁄4 in.); and a flake surface loss (approximately 1⁄4 in.) near the signature with an adjacent area of lifting to the surface. The glass diffuser with a surface scratch along the exterior (approximately 2 in. long). The bottom rim of the diffuser with approximately 5 minor (1⁄2 in.) stress cracks where the metal hardware rests, not visible when set in place.
