Condition
Overall condition very good, with no damage or losses detected. When connected to a power source each of the lights is currently functioning. Overall in our opinion the light presents well. Please note that the color in the catalogue photograph is not accurate - the gold appears murky and subdued. In reality the gold is a rich and vibrant orange/yellow gold.
