Good. (6.5). Some discoloured crazing is evident on the face and a dark stain in the middle. Gold leaf trim is good with just some minor wear. A few fine scratches. Under one corner the flange is chipped over about 25 mm by up to 5 mm. Opposite end has a 30 x 8 mm section that has been glued back in, some flaking along the inner edge of this. Heavy patch of rust stain to the underside. Short deep scratch also to the underside. With a good clean this will look great with none of the damage on the front. We have never sold one of these oddly shaped examples before.. Estimate: $50-75
