The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
This report was prepared by Tatti Art Conservation:
The above piece appears to be in overall excellent condition both aesthetically and structurally. The red/brown patina presents evenly and healthy, and a new application of protective wax has recently been applied to the surface and buffed to a soft sheen.
The half of the bow hanging off the rear end of the horse was recently repaired and secured using a non-ferrous pin and brazing. Additionally, the feather at the head of the figure was further secured with a thread filler.
