Condition
The upper part of the cauldron is significantly damaged - a large portion of the rim is broken and missing. The edge is uneven, with chipped and eroded sections. The walls show signs of wear and areas of corrosion that developed over time. Traces of soot or soil remain on the surface of the cauldron, indicating that it was buried in the ground for a long period. The bottom of the cauldron remains intact.
