diameter 9 1/2 inches, weight 26.2 Troy ounces, craftsman [probably] David Carlson. There is a small divot along the rim which we've magnified twenty-fold so that it looks like a crater, but this is barely visible to the naked eye. There are also some salt spots on the interior, (see fifth photo) but the chasing is crisp and the overall condition is truly outstanding.
This is one of Stone's best designs, with similar examples held at Yale University Art Gallery and other major museums. This particular example is heavy than others which we have owned, and has never been monogrammed.
