Overall in very good condition. The gilt surfaces with minor surface scuffs, scratches, and soiling concentrated to the curled ends of the leaves, as well as some minor wear and rubbing as partially visible in the catalogue illustration, all consistent with age and gentle use. The faceted crystal diffusers with very minor scattered flecks and nicks throughout, not visually distracting and consistent with age and gentle use. A small glass bead is unattached but could easily be re-fixed. Please note that Sotheby's does not guarantee the functionality and/or the voltage compatibility for electrical wiring, and suggests having all electrical components inspected by a licensed electrician. A very refined and chic model from these classic high French Art Deco designers.
