One noticeable dent to rim with some further knocks which are relatively minor but present and should be noted; some rubbing to the finish and exposure of bronze to this area; surface scuffs and marks to body visible against the matte finish; areas of apparent oxidisation or certainly some kind of surface effect and discolouration around the applied foliage; some minor knocks to edge of foot.
