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.

Fairly good condition overall. The wooden body with a few cracks on the sides, the largest measuring around 4 cm, and very rubbed and scratched throughout. Losses to varnish throughout. Four vertical silver swags are missing. One vertical swag on the corner is snapped and is slightly loose. Otherwise, general surface wear consistent with age.

Please note that some countries, including the United States, have imposed tariffs on the import of Russian origin goods. This lot may be subject to a tariff upon import into the United States. Please contact the department or Christie's Post Sale Services for more information.
