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.
Lefthand lady:
Expert restoration to her topknot (the upper section may be reattached), to the vase she holds and to her hands. Possible restoration to her neck, but not apparent under UV light.
Righthand lady:
Expert restoration to her hands and some touch-up in her hair. A very small, slicing chip in her hem (visible in catalogue illustration).
Overall:
Very strong appearance with good modeling and details. Bright color with lots of crisp detail, just some light rubbing, largely to small areas of gilt.
