Condition

Overall in good condition. The surface with some variations in the finish, original in the making and not visually distracting. The talosel is slightly dry overall and presents with small cracks, inherent to the aging of this material. The talosel presents with previous restorations (mostly to stabilize previous cracks and dried areas). The small convex mirrored glass presents with pittings of oxidation. The large convex mirrored glass presents with very few pittings of oxidation.
