In overall decent, stable, ready-to-place condtition. Light surface scratching throughout consistent with polishing and use. Still retaining a reflective surface. The glass bowl is largely intact without cracks or restoration, likely original to bowl. The points of cut-glass elements on rim with a scattered small fleabites and flakes, does not detract from overall aesthetic unless viewed closely. One larger chip to to the rim of the glass. One handle with a very small (approximately 1/8-inch) shallow linear indent. Additional images available upon request.
