Description

  • 21cm, 8 1/4 in over handles
shallow circular, punched with stylised buds and flowers, shell handles

Condition

Marks clear and well defined. A couple of possible old repairs to flutes but not certainly repairs. One small area where the metal has cracked but no sign of repair to the other side so probably a fault line in the alloyed metal. General light wear and little scratches etc but generally a nice piece with a good colour
