Condition Report:
The illustrations are accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable minor dents and scratches due to age and use. A few minor mirror and glass elements are missing. They could be easily replaced by good murano artisan. The gilding is slightly rubbed revealing copper underneath. One pierced ornament with a putto´s head on the corner is probably later. Highly decorative.
