For light bulb sockets are mounted on the stem for further sockets are mounted above the top of the base bowl and each of the branches has a further lightbulb socket. Most of the drops look to be present and fitted although there are a number of additional loose drops to hand. Six original ormolu wax pans have been retained. Two of the original wax pans mounted above the icicle reverse finials are missing. One of the reverse finials has cut ripped decoration the others are plain.
