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.

We have sought to record changes in the condition of these pieces acquired after their initial manufacture.
- The three snuff bottles with a few nicks to the edges and rims, and surface scratches.
- The smallest overlay snuff bottle with a few minute bubble gaps, and a minute flat chip to the inner mouth rim.
- The three spoons are missing.
- The stoppers are missing, one jadeite stopper.
General age-related surface wear as can be expected.
