拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。
We have sought to record changes in the condition of this piece acquired after its initial manufacture.
- one small section of repair to the bronze at one corner
- chips and nicks to the edges
- some losses to the silver inlay
- scratches and expected surface wear
