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 presentation. As to be expected, the ormolu and patinated bronze both with some minor surface scratches, slight casting inconsistencies, light oxidation and rubbing; the rubbing most prominent at the socles. Some elements showing signs of a strong cleaning, such as the cup-shaped mounts below the vase bodies. The linings to the nozzles are replaced; the lowermost step of each plinth base associated. One with some darker repair to the top of its goat-heads. Good overall, ready to place.
