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 manufacture.
- The bowl is in good overall condition and the enamels are bright.
- There is some very light rubbing to the enamels as can be expected with its age.
- There is some fritting to the rim and a few very small, shallow chips, the largest measuring approx. 0.6 cm x 0.2 cm.
- There is a tiny nick to the foot ring.
- There are three labels to the base reading: "Bluett & Sons London"; "Vanderven Vanderven 146"; and an indistinct label "X old Chinese Porcelain from the Earl of X collection".
