Overall with some minor scuffs and scratches consistent with age and handling, some scratches, hairlines, small losses and areas of touch-up to the enamels, most notably to some of the hearts and at the green mid-band, to the left of the lower handle terminal, where there is a 1⁄2-inch loss to the band, the handle with some faint traces of gilding, some areas of filigree and enamel slightly loose though secure, the foot very slightly out-of-round, resulting in a faint wobble, the whole with a very subtle leftward tilt, overall good condition.
