The reticulated cover is fully gilded with pierced detailing and is surmounted by a pointed finial.

An orange auction lot sticker numbered 244 is attached to one handle.


Condition report:

The item appears to be in good overall condition. There is minor rubbing to the gilding on the handles, finial, and edges consistent with age and handling. No chips, cracks, or visible repairs are apparent from the visual inspection.
