Signs of age, surface marks, chips, scratches, overall in excellent vintage condition.
Given the age of the piece, the wiring is original and would likely benefit from being updated as a precaution. I test the lights: one is working perfectly, while the other isn’t turning on. This appears to be a simple issue ; most likely just a worn or faulty switch rather than anything more significant.
If you’d like, I can have the switch updated before shipping (DIY). Otherwise, you could also have it professionally refreshed on your end to ensure everything is up to modern standards.
Overall, the piece remains in beautiful vintage condition and is truly a standout. For installation, you’ll just need brackets to secure it to your base, which are easy to source at any hardware store, and assembly should be straightforward.
Gorgeous design, amazingly functional, incredible craftsmanship.
Feel free to reach out with any questions.
I’m happy to help!
