Hand-carved from solid mahogany, the structural integrity of the frame remains excellent with no loose components, breaks, or structural repairs.Finish & Patina: The original hand-applied gold leaf finish displays a rich, authentic age patina with minor, localized surface wear consistent with a 1990s vintage luxury piece.Details & Edges: As an early-era, hand-carved production piece, there is gentle softening to some of the fine details over time; specifically, some of the elongated flame ray tips show a slight, natural blunting and are no longer razor-sharp. This softening is normal for authentic, early Harrison & Gil workshop carvings and does not detract from the overall dramatic, sculptural aesthetic.Mirror Glass: The central glass mirror plate is in crisp, clear, and bright condition with no major scratches, deep clouding, or silvering degradation. less
