Condition

The surface of the ivory is somewhat dry. An approx. 6 by 2 cm triangular section of the right border of the plaque has been broken and restuck. There are some age cracks extending upwards from the base onto the plaque as visible in the photo. The plaque itself is glued to the wood base. The carvings seem to be generally in good condition with occasional tiny chips or losses, including the chain suspending from the lantern to the pole, as well as sections of the ribbon billowing below that have chipped off and are now missing.
