The lamp is brass with a round pierced base and four porcelain flowers around the central shaft. There are metal acanthus leaves around the socket bases. The lamp still has its original pleated silk shade, and the finial is a porcelain rose. The lamp is in working condition and the bulbs turn on separately with chain pulls.

One of the bulb arms is missing its cardboard candle cover, not so noticeable when the shaft is in a lower position. One of the pull chains is missing its "tasseled" end but still functions normally. The pink edging on the shade is fraying and nearly gone in some areas. Several petals are chipped on the yellow rose finial, the other flowers have a few small chips. The cord is not new, but is not brittle or cracked.

16 inches tall (the central shaft is adjustable and extends to 19 inches, but then the bulbs are visible). The shade measures 9 inches across, 6.75 inches tall, 5.5 inches wide. The base is 4.5 inches across. The cord is approximately 7 feet long. See less
