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 good order and ready to hang. Visible traces of previous polychrome painted surface throughout, particularly in crevices. Bare wood and gesso exposed in some places, as visible in catalogue images. With scattered chips, old repairs, and losses to carving in areas as to be expected with age, most notably to carved extremities. Old repaired break to shell cresting, and to leaf tip of uppermost border decoration on proper right side, and one leaf tip lacking but now replaced with gesso molding to lower section of proper right foliate swag. Some minor shrinkage at joints. The later plate with minor surface scratches and small losses to silvering. Possibly originally conceived as a picture frame.
