Overall very good original condition. Light natural wear to surfaces and extremities commensurate with age and use. The top surface of the pedestal base has scattered abrasions and minor indents commensurate with age and use. The stem fits slightly loose to the base plate and would benefit from being tightened slightly. The aluminum shade remains in overall excellent condition with aged patina, and retaining the original reflective paint to the interior that has aged to an attractive warm yellowish amber. Overall in our opinion this represents an excellent example of the model.
