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。

Very good condition overall. The pins on the side borders are possibly replaced. There is some minor discolouration to the gold mount on the side. The original ivory back has been replaced with ivorine. Otherwise, very minor surface scratching and wear consistent with age.

Please note that some countries, including the United States, have imposed tariffs on the import of Russian origin goods. This lot may be subject to a tariff upon import into the United States. Please contact the department or Christie's Post Sale Services for more information.
