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; with some minor areas of re-stitching and discoloration, notably to the water stain at the lower right around the kneeling woman's skirt. Some minor area of loss to the stitching revealing ground beneath, mostly to the soldier's beard. The spangles and silver filé with some tarnish as expected with age. Not examined out of frame; please note that Christie's does not guarantee the condition of frames.
