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 good condition; each with minor surface wear and wear to the gilding, particularly at the widest points; some scattered tiny losses to the painted decoration; the flange of one cover unglazed and slightly shorter, possibly from being cut down or replaced; the vases with handles slightly loose, but secured, one handle with glue residue; the top of each stand with further surface scratches where the vase or centerpiece rests; the centerpiece with an approx. 11⁄2 in. scratch to the body at its widest point and the bowl of the centerpiece pinned to its socle (possibly a later mounting), the central socle knop with two hairline cracks; presents very well.
