Condition
Overall very good condition. The patinated bronze surfaces display a rich russet brown and green patina, with some occasional scattered minor surface scratches and abrasions consistent with age and gentle handling. The interior surface of the dish with some scattered minor discolorations, not visually detractive. The dish with some extremely minor traces of oxidation to the recessed contours of the design. The glass cabochon jewels are beautifully iridized and display a harmonious variegated palette of warm tones ranging from golden yellow to deep orange. The jewels all appear to be original and undisturbed. A very charming and functional work with wonderful jeweled decoration.
