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 these pieces acquired after their initial manufacture.

The jar and cover:
- There are an approx. 0.6 cm. wide surface chip the glaze on the foot rim, and a small shallow chip to the foot rim.
- There are glaze crackles inside the cover.
- There are a few nicks to the cover's inner rim.
- There are a few firing cracks, the larger one measuring approx. 3 cm. to the cover.
- There are a few firing spots.

The salt-cellars:
- One with a few small chips and nicks to the mouth rim.
- The other one with a firing crack and a firing fault to the base, and a few burst glaze bubbles to the mouth rim.
- There are some pin-size glaze gaps.

The three pieces with general age-related surface wear, scratches and minute firing faults as can be expected.
