There is some light glazing or aging over hte entire piece which is barely noticeable at a few feet away. There is a small 1/2 inch long flake on the bottom, back side that is not visible when looking at the piece from any angle while it rests on its bottom. The flake is only visible when you look at the lamp from the bottom and then you must look hard. The back of the lamps right side, (left side when you are face to face) has two small splits, one along the sides flower pot and the other on the large poening at the back of the head. Btoh of these appear to be factory imperfections and are sturdy. On both flower pots along their back sides you acn see stress cracks (neither of which detract or take away from the beauty or integrity of the piece). Overall the lamp is ni very nice condition. The lamp is 10 inches tall by 8 inches wide by 5 1/2 inches thick. I believe it has itās original light socket (marked union on the flat fo the switch).
