Figure 2 - (Morning Dew - Urn held in both hands) - There is a small repair of the little finger of the left hand, this has slightly discoloured and could benefit from being reworked. There is some wear to the gilding on the base and also some crazing within the glaze to the folds of cloth. To the lower rear folds of the cloth there is a very faint line just visible.
