Condition Report
The lamp appearing in overall good and stable condition. The glass is free from chips, cracks, or breaks. The gilt brass has a few minor scratches in the finish at one side, not immediately noticeable. The lamp's plug had been painted to match the color scheme of the consignor's home. Lamp not tested at time of this report, but was working when installed in consignor's home. The lamp was plugged into a room with electronically-controlled lighting systems, and thus does not have an on/off switch. It must be modified to be switched. Additional images available upon request.
