Condition
Overall in very good condition. The enameled decoration is in very good condition, showing no visible losses. The silvered bronze surfaces with rubbing and a few very small and minute associated silvering losses, and with minor discolorations throughout consistent with age and gentle use. The reverse with areas of surface rubbing and discolorations. The reverse appears to retain its original easel frame. With clear glass cover, which has one shallow edge fleck to one corner (1/2 x 1/4 inch) which is entirely concealed when the cover is installed. The frame presents beautifully, displaying charming proportions and a highly attractive color palette.
