This was made in Italy and retains original metal tag as shown. Gold tole finish over a pattern that resembles a sunburst. Typical signs of age and handling but solid condition overall. Please see photos for the best description and let me know if you have any questions.

Measures about 23" in diameter, 6.5" tall.

Good condition overall. There is no loss, no cracks, no loose joints, no repairs. Structurally sound, perfectly usable as found. The gold finish has expected patina, scratches, wear and some loss in places; mostly where is has been creased around the outside tips. There are some scratches and wear around the center hole and surrounding area as well as scratches to the high points on some pieces. There are some creases visible around the outside pieces but again no cracks, no loss. This is somewhat pliable; things can be adjusted and/or straightened. The underside also has patina but rather clean overall. Please see photos for best description and send any questions. See less
