Condition

Overall in very good condition. The favrile glass tulip shades are a well matched set, displaying strong iridescence and luminous color. One shade with a tiny 1/8 inch shallow surface chip to the top aperture (not visible when installed in the sconce mount). The bronze mounts display an exceptionally rich russet brown and green patina. The bronze surfaces with some occasional light surface scratches, gentle rubbing to the patina, and light surface soiling consistent with age and gentle use. The sockets and paddle switches all appear to be original and undisturbed.
