Condition:
All 4 plates remain in very good antique condition. Ons of the plates has a small chip on the edge apart from that no chips, cracks. Some of the gilding shows some wear. The collection was found in the ceiling of a house that was owned by a lady that passed away at the age of 90. It's my believe that it was stored in the ceiling for a large part of her life, hence the condition of the plates.
