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.
- as the jade has not been examined without the metal mount, it is difficult to ascertain whether the fine cracks and opaque bruises on the jade are the result of natural fissures or repaired breaks
- a few very minor nicks to the exposed edges of the jade
- expected light tarnishing and wear to the metal mount from age and use
