There is a small loss along one of these hairline cracks. There is crazing to the glaze throughout. Minor losses to the gilding, particularly to the beading that frames the painted scenes. The bronze mounts are patinated and show some collection of dust in the recesses. Please contact us for a detailed condition report.
