Condition

Overall excellent condition. The elements with only very slight evidence of use with a few minute edge chips to the surface adjacent to the wall. Two of the elements with tight cracks (one on the shelf element and one on the lower section), which could easily be stabilized. Piece is structurally stable. Lacking hardware. Each of the ceramic elements with holes to attach to the wall.
