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 condition commensurate with age and use. The shade presents with a light peachy hue while the stem and base present with a translucent light green tone. The glass presents with a few minute air bubbles and a few minute inclusions inherent in the making and not visually distracting. The shade with scattered faint scratches and minor white paint scuffs. The top rim with very few minute edge chips; and the bottom rim with a few scattered minor edge chips not visible when placed in brass mount. The stem and base with scattered nicks and minor hairline cracks that appear to have been stabilized at some point in the history of the piece. The brass elements with light oxidation throughout typical with aging of this material.
Please note that while the lamp appears to be in working condition, Christie's does not guarantee the functionality of the electrical components.
