Condition Report

Overall attractive functional condition. The lamp head portion is free of any major misshaping or losses to the finish - the top opening shows one fleabite to the rim. The brass elements also present well displaying an age-appropriate warm even patina throughout. The blue hairpin legs show some scattered losses to the painted finish associated with age and use. The lamp has been professionally rewired (for US outlets) and is fully operational.
