NORTHERN SONG DYNASTY (960-1127)

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.

We have sought to record changes in the condition of this piece acquired after its initial manufacture.
-The handle is a later replacement.
-There is a small restored chip at the tip of spout and a hairline at the base of spout measuring approx. 3.3 cm with associated overspraying.
-There is oversraying and overpainting to the outer mouth.
-Some glaze gaps on the body and a few kiln adhesions that are original to the firing.
