Condition Report

The gilt finish appears to be original. It has been rubbed and is tarnished in some areas, and is also dusty and needs to be cleaned. The wires attaching the rock crystal prisms and pressed glass flowers are weak and have broken in various areas. At least one of the smaller rock crystal prisms is missing. The sconces are not electrified.
