Condition report
The back has discoloured extensively so it would suggest extensive restoration and yet from the front there is little suggestion that it has been heavily rebuilt. There is some discolouration to the gilding and scuff marks, which could be from firing or later restoration. There are losses and grazes to the rim edge.
