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 this piece acquired after its initial manufacture.
- There are a few losses of enamels, some of them filled-in.
- There is some pitting to the enamels all over.
- Rings are possibly missing to the gilt-bronze mask-form side handles.
- There are a few small nicks to the gilt-bronze rims/edges.
- The base plaque has possibly been replaced.
Otherwise, the vase is in good overall condition with general age-related surface wear as can be expected.
