Light surface wear to aquamarine, with occasional small nicks/scuffs. The mount has occasional small splits to the back, at junctions within the abstract linear surround, which can be seen under magnification. The mount has areas of solder at junctions to the back of the surround, which may be part of manufacture. Some of the outer linear sections are a little mis-shapen. The mount otherwise has light surface wear, nicks and scuffs throughout, commensurate for occasional use, with small areas of tarnishing. The brooch pin and safety catch are currently functioning. Gross weight approx. 38.3gm.
