The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
In stable condition, and ready to place. Inherently with natural inclusions and cracks. With scattered repairs and associated infill throughout, consistent with age. The white marble surface treated. With the expected nicks and 'nibbles' to extreme edges. With some slight buildup of dirt in deeper crevices. The feet probably old replacements, at which time additional cement was added to stabilize and strengthen.
Some restorations have been made to the junction between the feet of the upper cup and the central shaft.
There are some minor traces of glue on this part.
