Hammer
£360

More Information
Condition overall is good, albeit a little dusty. There are some tiny nicks to the upper edges of the marble base. One of the cast ormolu panels in the base is missing and some of the others are loose. The fittings at the top are obviously modern replacements to convert them into lamps, from which the electric cable issues. As lamps they are working and have passed the PAT test.
