Overall with some scattered age and construction cracks as expected. The surface with some minor scattered abrasions and losses, particularly at base. Possibly replacements to turned feet. The ormolu with some minor rubbing, tarnish and verdigris. The glass with some minor scattered scratches. The painted top not examined without glazing and with some minor areas of discoloration, inpainting and cracks to board, mostly at edges. Lovely example, the gouache with nice, fresh colors, presenting well, ready to place.
