CONDITION:
Excellent. Very slight loss of porcelain edge inside one fitting, see images. This does not affect function or stability of light at all. Once had rubber rings to form seal between glass and porcelain to exclude moisture. No rings in this pair but they function perfectly without - consult you electrician if you want to install in a wet area.
