9.23.24-In my opinion regarding LOT: 3048-As described, the lamps were observed operating, a careful UV examination reveals no apparent chips or cracks, I do observe what appears to be peeling of the clear glaze to the neck of one lamp, it does not react to UV light, so I do not believe that it is a restoration, however I am unsure so have taken images for your review, gilt metal appears with some rubs, mellowing and wear, the ‘smudge’ you noted online was dirt and wiped off instantly
