Condition Report
The table lighter displays general scratches, marks and wear. The silver is quite tarnished. A screw is missing from one of the brackets meaning the gimbal is no longer balanced. The ball also displays some dents. Fractures visible to the ivory with light patina. The hallmarks are quite rubbed, particularly to the gimble mount, maker's mark partly illegible.
