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 with light surface soiling and minor wear commensurate with age and use. The iridescent glass presents with amber tones while illuminated. The glass with very few minute inclusions, scattered minor air bubbles, and minor surface irregularities inherent in the making and not visually distracting. The glass with a few faint surface scratches and minor surface wear concentrated to the lower quadrant of the shade. The gilt bronze base with very minor wear, surface scratches, and light oxidation typical with aging of this material. The stem of the base with a slight bend, presenting the shade slightly askew. Overall presents well and ready for display.
Please note that while the lamp appears to be in working condition, Christie’s does not guarantee the functionality of the electrical components.
