Condition Report
Rim has been knocked and is somewhat misshapen, base also, some further minor general wear of nicks, some small indentations, light scratches and tarnish; stand supports have been knocked and does not currently sit flat on an even surface, rim also knocked and misshapen with similar overall general wear; the decoration of the stand is very similar but not entirely consistent with the bowl so it possibly is a marriage but unfortunately we are unable to be definitive on this either way; stand has a raised rim, the bowl sits within this but not with an exact fit
