Property from the Historic Durand Mansion and Masonic Center, Racine, WI Design In overall good and stable condition with no breaks, repairs or denting evident. All brass shades are bright and even from the exterior with only light scratching consistent with age and placement. The interiors of the brass shades would benefit from a cleaning and have debris and dirt from age. The wood elements retain surface dirt as well. One shade is missing its circular clear glass plate, and one shade has a flat glass shade replacement differing from the other radiating circle pressed glass plates. These chandeliers have not been tested for electricity. All of the wood ball elements that cap the sunburst motif are present. A sticker inside the ceiling cap is present reading "Union Made | American Federation of Labor"
