Condition Report
Front: The display surface is in very good, glossy condition with beautiful natural crazing that adds authentic vintage character. The colors remain remarkably rich and vivid.
Back: There is a hairline crack visible on the reverse terracotta body (as shown in the detailed photos). This is strictly structural to the back biscuit and does not reflect through to the front, leaving the display face entirely stable, sound, and visually pristine.

Brass stand is not included. See less
