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 very good condition with a few light surface scratches and very minor wear commensurate with age and use. The metal with a very few minor abrasions. The Bakelite with a few scattered very minor areas of discoloration. The brass with light oxidation typical with aging of this material. The glass diffuser in good condition with minute edge chips and one minor slice (approximately ¹⁄₄ in.), only visible upon very close inspection. The surfaces with light soiling and minor dirt concentrated to recessed areas. Presents well and ready for display.

Please note that while the lamp appears to be in working condition, Christie’s does not guarantee the functionality of the electrical components.
