Overall in very good condition. The patinated bronze surfaces present with light surface scratches and edgewear consistent with gentle use. The patina with occasional and very light areas of discoloration concentrated to the edges and the area around the incised signature.

A functional and highly sculptural piece by the multidisciplinary British artist.
