Condition Report
Condition generally good to fair. The jade would benefit from an overall clean, and has adhesive residue to back where it was mounted to base. Minor nibbles are evident to the inside rim of the piece, as evident in the first image. Some minor abrasion to the base of the piece, though nothing to detract from the overall effect. Wear to wooden mount base as per age including some splits to wood. Additional images now available.
