More Information

Overall good. No large dents or signs of repair. There is a small split to the side of the bowl (as pictured) which does run through to the interior - this measures approx. 6mm. The gilt to the interior is very heavily worn. All decoration is crisp. Handle is secure and moves smoothly. The basket sits flat when on a level surface. Hallmarks are clear. PLEASE NOTE: Hallmarks are on the base only, and are not located anywhere else on the piece.
