It has a line switch for easy turn on. Lamp is in good condition with no cracks in globe itself. The lucite chunks can have some wear scratches in spots but not bad for age. The lucite chunks visually look pretty well. There could be some small edge chips, but not bad.
I did a visual inspection. The edges are so ragged, its hard to tell if any damage but does not seem to be any.
Lamp was made to be ragged on the opening. Every individual piece can vary with raggedy edges. Theres a few scorched spots inside, just small dot types.
There may be a white glue like residue under lucite chunks between lucite: may be normal. Recommended to use an LED bulb: not included. I'm not sure if the chain, when installed was new as it's a tarnished brass ish metal.Cool lamp that is ready to be plugged in and enjoyed. See all pics for they are part of description. May have other issues not mentioned but mentioned most significant. Measures 12.5" across, 13" high, 4 underside opening. These are approximate, mind you.
Guesstimates on chain, 14.5' of cord and 13' of chain.
