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。

We have sought to record changes in the condition of these pieces acquired after their initial manufacture.

The washer:
A chip to the mouth rim.
Spur marks under the base.
Areas of the base have been ground down.
A few surface nicks to a kiln grit adhesion in the well.
Some minute nicks to the mouth rim, a few underglaze small chips to the mouth rim.

The libation cup:
An old small chip and some old nicks under to the foot rim.
A few very small chips / nicks to the mouth rim.
An approx. 5 cm. long hairline going down from the mouth rim, with associated minute losses along the crack line.
Some deep scratches.

Both with general age-related surface wear and scratches as can be expected.
