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。

Shaker: there are a few areas showing some fine scratches and abrasions, minor indentations to the rim and where the caps meet, all in keeping with light, natural use.

Glasses: there are minor abrasions to the underside of the foot (on both glasses), overall good condition.

The condition of lots sold can vary widely due to factors such as age, previous damage, restoration, repair, and wear and tear. The nature of the lots sold means that they will rarely be in perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
