Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. All of the elements are well intact. There are a few minor inconsistencies and variations within the bonded salt, polymer elements. There is some light scattered debris in the two vertical elements resembling sound absorbing panels. The black, lacquered square surface has some faint scattered surface scratches and a few minor inconsistencies due to the application of the medium.
