The legs present with light wear with a few losses of patina and some traces of light oxidation. The epoxy stone presents with some irregularities and traces of the mold, all inherent to the making and a few stains. //// Mouton de Pierre numbered 2 : The patina is slightly lighter and presents with some light wear throughout with instances of light oxidation and a few traces of light vert-de-gris.
