拍品的狀況可能存在極大差異,而由於其性質使然,拍品難以處於完美無瑕的狀態。拍品均以拍賣時的狀況出售。
We have sought to record changes in the condition of these pieces acquired after their initial manufacture.
One vase:
- There is a star-crack to the base, associated with minute losses along the crack lines.
- There are several short crackles to the mouth rim and above the foot.
The other vase:
- There is a 3.8 cm. long vertical hairline going down from the mouth rim.
- There are some short crackles to the mouth rim.
Both vases:
- There are some firing faults, including pin-size glaze gaps, firing cracks, and wider glaze gaps inside the vases.
- There is some wear to the gilding.
- There are some scattered faint brownish crackles.
- There are some surface scratches and abrasions.
- Both vases with general age-related surface wear as can be expected.
