Additional Notes & Condition Report
there are significant scattered flake losses to the plum colored enameling, most notably on the bottom side of the base; there are chips and roughness that can be felt on the top rim edge of the glass body when the metal mount is removed, consistent with age, usage and handling, and not of real consequence; although wired, the lamp has not been drilled for wiring (as made); the lamp has two light sockets: one illuminates the shade and the other lower downward facing socket that illuminates the base from within; sockets and wiring not tested
