Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although they fail to fully convey the reflective nature of the metallic silver paint, and the green is slightly lighter in the original.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals some very light wear to all four corner tips.
