拍品的状况可能存在极大差异,而由于其性质使然,拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。
Overall good condition commensurate with age and gentle use. The shade presents while illuminated with blossoms in tones of persimmon as well as hazel and burgundy against leaves in emerald green on a periwinkle background with bands of pale yellow. The ring along the upper aperture appears to have been stabilized at some point in the history of the piece. The glass with light surface scratches and approximately two glass tiles with cracks.
The base presents with a gilt finish. The metal surfaces with light scratches, minor wear, and scattered areas of light oxidation typical with aging of this material. With very minor dirt to recessed areas. The gilt finish with minor wear at high points. The three light cluster with replaced modern sockets. One pull chain shortened, yet functioning. The wheel and riser appear to be original to the base. The heat cap presents with a reddish brown patina and green overtones and appears to be period.
Please note that while the lamp appears to be in working condition, Christie’s does not guarantee the functionality of the electrical components.
