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。

In fairly good condition overall.
With the inevitable knocks, marks, losses, scratches and shrinkage cracks, consistent with age and use.
As stated re-gilt, the current gilding toned down and with losses, rubbing, cracking and chipped overall. Most of the high points of carving rubbed to reveal bare timber and apparently white clay and reddish pink bole.
Some flaking to the inner border which would benefit from stabilising.
The cartouche has broken historically and previously repaired. Currently loose and slightly unstable and would benefit from securing to avoid further breaks.
Some other minor knocked losses to the edges of carving, as to be expected.
The mirror plate replaced and 20th century - heavily but evenly foxed with central vertical loss to silvering running through the plate.
The backboards apparently replaced.
Otherwise structually secure and ready to hang.
