Ces figures sont en bon état général. Chaque gazelle a un petit trou de forage à l'arrière de son cou, un rempli d'une substance blanche avec un autre trou de forage éventuellement rempli sur un côté de la selle. Il manque deux tiers des bois d'une des deux gazelles. Le décor gravé sur les deux gazelles est globalement net et est réhaussé en blanc. Il y a quelques petites éraflures et écorchures éparses sur le laiton, et des zones de ternissement autour des oreilles et des sabots. Les supports sont stables, avec une légère décoloration et une usure de la couverture en tissu rouge.
These figures are in good and stable overall condition. Each gazelle has a small drill hole to the back of its neck, one filled in with a white substance with a further, possibly filled drill hole to one side of the saddle cover. This gazelle is also missing approximately two thirds of one its antlers. The engraved decoration on both gazelles is crisp overall and is picked out in white. There are some minor scattered nicks and abrasions to the brass, and areas of tarnishing around the ears and hooves. The stands are stable, with some minor fading and wear to the red fabric cover.
