Condition Report
This chandelier is very heavy and is stored on a steel frame, which it has been transported on. With hairline cracks on some arms at the attachment point. One arm previously detached (pictured dangling) and repaired. Another arm is lacking one of two screws that holds it in place but remains stable and can be easily replaced. Having dust and debris in crevices throughout and some rubbing and darkening in color to the gilt. Additional images available upon request.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition.
