### **Condition:**
**very good to excellent Condition.** No chips, cracks, crazing, or repairs. The hand-painted enameling remains bright and intact, and the heavy gold gilding along the rim and borders shows exceptional preservation for its age. Very, very minor age associated wear here and there, nothing serious to report. But it is over 100 years old. The ivory colored body does show some tiny darker specks here and there, I believe it was made this way.
