There are some bumps and chips around the corners and edges of the marble tiered base

I have included pics of the inside of the font so you can get a good idea of condition - apparently at some time, a previous owner had it electrified and then reverted back
I\'m not sure how these old lamps worked, so please purchase with that in mind
