Condition Report
Sturdy, attractive and ready-to-place condition overall. The wiring needs minor repair, because the lamps do not have switches (they were modified to be hardwired in a room where all the lighting was controlled electronically). Gilding appears to be original and shows wear / faded patina. Shades are intact and were custom-made.
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. Any reference to condition in a catalogue

accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Hindman
staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the
