Provenance
Macklowe Gallery, New York
Condition
Overall in very good condition. The favrile glass tiles with a few minor surface cracks, and some occasional small edge flecks. The bronze surfaces show very minimal signs of wear and rubbing consistent with age and gentle use. As expected, the interior and perimeter top aperture of the dish with surface discoloration and oxidation from prior use. With the original copper liner, which also shows signs of surface wear, discoloration and oxidation from use, and a few shallow bruises along the sides. A beautiful example of the model, displaying a wonderful range of color, strong iridescence, and a rich deep patina to the bronze surfaces.
