Bon état général.
Quelques traces de restaurations au parchemin, notamment au sommet des angles et au dossier, le long des bords, dissimulant quelques manques. L'ensemble recouvert d'un vernis afin de stabiliser le parchemin. Quelques tâches et fines rayures au parchemin, d'usage. Quelques rares et anciens trous de vers. Le décor présente quelques traces d'usure par endroit, certains éléments redorés postérieurement.
Good overall condition.
Some traces of restoration to the vellum, notably to the top of the corners and to the back, along the edges, hiding a few lacks. The entire surface lightly revarnished to stabilize the vellum. A few stains and hairline scratches to the vellum, consistent with age and normal use. A few rare old worm holes. The decor lightly wear in some areas, the gilding refreshed.
