Overall this has a dark matted green patination, there are some areas of a paler almost limeish green showing, much of this looks to be original but there ae some areas of the upper arms that look like the patination has been rubbed down a little, extreme tips of the ears also look rubbed, otherwise a few tiny surface scratches around the base and more notable thin diagonal scratch running through the side of the brazier, electrical cable looks to be a fairly recent replacement and has been cut an inch away from the bronze, pink granite base looks original, and is unchipped.
