Condition

Overall very good condition. The epoxy stone has been cleaned and presents with minor surface dirt, a few areas of slight discoloration, and occasional irregularities inherent in the material. The bronze surfaces are in very good condition, with minor surface scratches, minor abrasions and minor wear to the patina to the raised points consistent with age and gentle handling. An iconic work by Francois-Xavier Lalanne.
