Golden brown patina. There are some spots of minor discolouration and a few minor scratches in places. There are a few very minor spots of oxidisation to the knees and to the waist of the figure. Apart from some dust in the crevices and some spots of surface dirt (much of which could be easily removed with cleaning), this work is in overall good condition.
