Condition
Overall in generally very good condition, consistent with age. The surface presents with a few light scuffs and/or nicks, but generally there are no visually obtrusive marks. There are two small chips to edge of the lip, one measuring approximately 1/4 inch in length, the second measuring ½ inch in length, which have been sensitively restored by a professional. A dynamic form that remains one of Wirkkalas most recognizable models.
