The piece maintains a magnificent silver coating, without loss or wear, preserving an intense and uniform shine across the entire surface. *Structure: The smooth central base shows slight dents and surface ripples (typical of use and the malleable nature of the metal), which do not affect the stability or the overall aesthetic beauty.
