Condition report
A Christie's specialist may contact you to discuss this lot or to notify you if the condition changes prior to the sale.
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.
Overall in very good condition. The rock crystal with natural inclusions, some very faint surface wear including minor surface scratches and some small 'nibbles' as to be expected with age and handling. With a small chipped loss to the foot. The rock crystal panels on the body have shifted slightly over time and therefore there are some very small gaps along the band of flowers, where subsequently some of the flower mounts have moved very slightly as well; all secure and stable. The enamel in good condition, with some very minor rubbing to the raised areas of decoration, not extensive. Each of the maiden form handles very slightly out of shape, not readily noticeable. With some adhesive residue where the base of the cup meets the foot, possible as a result of an old restoration, now stable. The silver with some very minor oxidation, and some areas of polish residue. Presents very well overall.
