Will add a pop of scarlet to the smartest room scheme.
In good condition. Surface scuffs, scratches and minor lacquer losses. Usual corrosion within and tarnishing to the brass - all acceptable and commensurate with age. All could be reversed if desired. An authentic piece with the expected wear and patina.
