Condition

Good overall condition. The gold wasps presents with some surface soiling and dust, concentrated in the recessed areas. The mother of pearl presents with extremely light and rare scratches visible only upon close-inspection. The horn presents with a few rare and light scratches and with some hairline cracks inherent to the aging process of this material, as partially visible in the catalogue illustration. One tooth presents with a small crack that might have been very slightly infilled at a previous date.
