Condition
Good overall condition.
Background with some rust and circular discolorations overall. Rubbing to the patina, with a few areas of restorations. Four small drilled holes to each corner. Three holes in the decoration, that appear white on the catalogue illustration, likely to attach a missing element. A couple of age losses, notably to edges. Dirt to the recessed elements.
Bon état général.
Le fond avec traces de rouille et traces de décolorations circulaires sur l'ensemble de la surface. Usure de la patine, avec quelques petites zones de restaurations. Quatres petits trous percés dans chacun des coins. Trois trous dans le décor, qui apparaissent en blanc sur l'illustration au catalogue, probablement des fixations pour un élément de décor manquant. Deux petits manques dus au temps et à l'usage, notamment sur les bords. Salissure des éléments en relief.
