CHINA, LATE QING DYNASTY-REPUBLIC PERIOD

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 the changes in the condition of this piece acquired after its initial manufacture.
One bowl:
- a few minute chips to the mouth rim and glaze gaps, which are all original to manufacture
- very light rubbing to the iron red
- '84.07' is written in black enamel on base

The other bowl:
- two minute chips to the mouth rim, which are original to manufacture
- a very short crack and a few minute nicks to the foot rim, foot rim has been slightly polished
