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 decorative order. In further detail:
There is a 2 cm. long, lozenge-shaped, flat chip to the interior of the neck at the rim, which shows as a slight indent when the pewter cover is raised, but is not visible when the cover is in place. There is some further very minor scattered small rim chips around the upper rim, also hidden by the cover. There is a hairline crack running from just below one of the unattributed arms down to the footrim and into the base where it branches in two directions across the base for circa 7 cm. Some very minor chipping around the footrim. Typical small glaze losses, minute chips to raised decoration, firing faults and surface imperfections. The pewter mount (date undetermined) shows evidence of minor repairs to the ball thumbpiece.
