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 in sound, decorative condition. With scattered nicks, light surface scratches and scuffs. The leaves sharp at the edges, some with very small losses to tips and others slightly bent out of shape. The stems with visible solder, possibly from the manufacturing and now slightly discolored from age. Some of the leaves now lacking, not readily noticeable. The brass panels along the side lifting in areas and with some residue from previous glued repairs; a further panel lacking and one off but retained. With some rubbing to the patination. Some of the leaves and some areas of the stem with apparent adhesive residue, may benefit from light cleaning. One leaf tip off and retained. With some restorations to the underside of the leaf clusters. Wired for electricity. Please note Christie's does not guarantee the working order of lighting. Present well overall.
