CHINA, QING DYNASTY, 18TH-19TH CENTURY

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.

The wing-form covers are stuck to the body, they cannot be opened.

One incense burner:
- There are some small areas of losses to the enamels which have been filled-in.
- There are a few surface nicks to the enamels.
- There is some wear to the gilding.

The other incense burner:
- There is an area of restoration (approx. 1.5 cm. diam.) on the chest.
- There are a few small areas of losses to the enamels which have been filled-in.
- There is a bruise on one side, associated with in-fills.
- There is some wear to the gilding.

Both with general age-related surface wear and scratches as can be expected.
