The interior is fitted with two candelabra-base light sockets mounted to a central stem. The reverse of the fixture features a flat mounting plate stamped WALL MOUNT ONLY and includes a yellow Underwriters Laboratories (UL) label identifying the manufacturer.

Condition report:
The fixture exhibits an intentional heavy verdigris patina with additional natural weathering and tonal variation consistent with outdoor exposure. There is visible dust, residue, and water spotting on both the interior and exterior glass panels. The reverse mounting plate shows numerous fingerprints, smudges, and minor surface scuffing. The electrical leads are cut short, and the fixture is untested; professional inspection or rewiring is recommended prior to installation.
