Condition: **At least a dozen areas of spot repairs, 1/4" to 1-1/2", on the underside where the pierced work has split or cracked; about half of these repairs are visible on the upper surface. One or two repairs have worn through and the original crack has returned. Otherwise in good used condition with the expected nicks, pips and scuffs consistent with age. Hallmarked (on the edge) with: 1) the sterling lion passant; 2) the London crowned leopard's head; 3) the date letter "B" for 1757-1758; and 4) the "EA/IS" maker's mark of Aldridge and Stamper. The marks are poor, being partially struck over the piercework, with the maker's mark rubbed.
