A U-shaped piece was broken off the cup and is cleanly restuck: 6cm across at the rim, it runs down to the footrim (the left side of the break between the two figures in the vignette). There are some restored shallow rim chips (22mm wide) on the inside edge of the right side of the repair. There is another, smaller restored shallow rim chip (12mm across) to the side of the cup. There is some scattered very minor wear to the gilt border inside the rim of the cup.
Otherwise in good condition.
