Condition

Illustration is accurate. 18th century porcelain and 18th century giltbronze base were not originally associated together. Porcelain : one squirrel ear missing as well as one paw. Some chips to its tail and old restorations in places. Giltbronze : nice 18th century chasing. Needs a slight cleaning. Charming object.
