Condition:
-
Painted surface with some spots of heavy wear, mainly affecting black decorations of the armorial. Some fritz/nicks to green cartouche. 3, 6, and 8 o''clock portions of rim repaired. Underside base with restored rim. It is difficult to tell because the restoration is very good, but a large portion of lower section of the plate may have been broken; this would account for the evidence of rim repairs.
