拍品的狀況可能存在極大差異，而由於其性質使然，拍品難以處於完美無瑕的狀態。拍品均以拍賣時的狀況出售。

The torcheres in overall good condition and ready to place. The candle branches separate from the bases, and require assembly. The ormolu with expected dirt, wear and verdigris consistent with age and use. One torchere with one arm bent slightly inward and another with a soldered repair. Both externally wired for electricity. Please note that Christie's does not guarantee the working order of electrical items. The malachite with minor chipped losses and repairs throughout. Three loose sections of malachite veneer retained. The swags loose on the base of one torchere.
