Condition report:
The lamps appear in excellent vintage condition. The black paper shades show visible surface dust and minor lint (photo 1, 3). The faux-bois finish on the bases remains well-preserved with only very minor surface scuffing consistent with age (photo 1). The electrical cords and plugs appear in good condition; however, the lamps have not been tested for electrical functionality.
