Overall very good condition, all consistent with age and use.
The lacquered metal structure presents rust throughout, as well as tiny dents and light rubbing marks. The circular parts are slightly loose, but not affecting the stability of the piece.
The twelve glass shades present minute tiny scratches and in particular one shows very light rubbing marks, and a second one, instead, a production default.
One glass shade has been replaced and present some tiny rubbing marks on the side, and some tiny chips on the collar.
The metal element (from the hanging structure) presents some scratches, tiny dents along the edges. Two are slightly bent on the side.
The "plate" presents losses of lacquer, oxidation and rust throughout.

Sotheby's does not guarantee electrical components and suggests having all wiring inspected by a licensed electrician.
