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.

We have sought to record changes in the condition of this lot acquired after its initial manufacture.
- Very good condition overall.
- There are some almost invisble very light scratches.
- Extremely minor lifting to inlay of a few cherry petals on the box side.
- Interior rims with very minor rubbing in a few places consistent with age and use.
- The base with some light scratches, consistent with being placed.
