In overall very good condition. The gilt surface exhibits rubbing and some scattered losses to gilt and gesso, some shrinkage separations and wear. Some scattered inpainting at past finish losses. No notable losses to the carving observed. There is a saw mark at the top of the crest, but no indications of past dowels or screws at that point. The mirror plate is generally crisp and clear with several scattered losses/blemishes to the silvering.
