Wired for American outlets, each function properly when tested.
Plated surfaces have a mottled appearance from handling over time. One example has a notable, dime-sized loss to plating with a three inch abrasion through the middle of loss. One shade shows a two inch closed tear along top edge. Good vintage condition.
Signed with cast manufacturer’s mark to underside of each example: [B Barbier Paris Made in France].
