Condition

A functioning vintage lamp with attractive overall presentation.

There are three areas of damage: a crack near the lower waterfall scene, another crack affecting the upper outer rim and its cream-colored trim, and a small crack at the edge of the inner rotating shade.

These imperfections have been photographed clearly for full transparency and do not prevent the lamp from operating as demonstrated.

Additional minor signs of age and use may be present.

Please review all photographs and the demonstration video, which form part of the description.

Shipping

The lamp will be carefully disassembled and individually protected for secure shipping, with particular attention given to the fragile vintage shades.
