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.

Lady combing her hair:
Very minor water drop stains in places, mostly in the lower half. The figure is very well preserved however. The top right corner of the blue border is raised slightly. The gold speckled card margins are in good condition. On the reverse, there is some very minor staining on the calligraphic panel which remains in very good condition otherwise. The blue margins on the reverse have light discolouration.

Lady playing with fireworks:
Very minor rubbing of the surface. Otherwise in very good condition. Light black smudging in the top right corner of the gold-speckled margin. On the reverse, there is some brown staining in the lower half of the calligraphic panel which remains in very good condition otherwise. The blue margins are lightly scuffed around the edges.
