Condition
Overall very good condition. When viewed in person the copper presents with a richer, more nuanced coloration. The copper surfaces with scattered minor surface scratches, abrasions, some light wear, scattered minor discolorations, and minor traces of surface soiling and oxidation to the recessed contours, consistent with age and gentle use. The interior of the jardiniere with some more concentrated scattered discolorations, surface soiling and oxidation. A rare monumental design with rich coloration.
