This splendid piece was originally gilded - most of the gilding has now gone but there is a small amount left to central stem and to the ‘waist band’ just above the Nemean lion (tricky area to polish!). 

The hallmarks are rubbed but legible. 

There are no apparent areas of repair or major damage. 

The piece stands level. 

There are pawnbroker scratch marks to underside. 

The weight is 56 tr. ozs 

Dimensions are 9 inches high x 9 inches diameter.
