The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
Good overall condition.
The illustrations published on the website catalogue are accurate despite the gilding slightly orange compared to the reality.
Structure: the left bronze branch slightly woobly.
European porcelain: flowers are mainly 18th century with some other later (around 1/4).
Gilding: with minor signs of tarnishing and very minor black spot traces.
Chinese porcelain: viewed without dismantling the bronzes.
There are few small chips/nicks to the rim. There are few areas of restoration with associated over spraying to the proper left hand. Otherwise, a good overall condition and some minute firing spots and faults.
Nice and highly decorative Louis XV piece.
