Condition Report
Dates to late 19th century. In good and stable condition overall, having significant weight due to material. The mirror plate is modern with few scratches to the surface. Appears to retain mostly original gilt with some possible areas of retouch throughout, though not clearly apparent. Spotted instances of wear and oxidation to the gilt throughout consistent with age. Additional images available upon request.
