拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

Please note antique textiles exhibit wear, losses, soiling and tears from normal use and repurposing. Some elements are re-pieced together with complimentary or contemporaneous textiles to mend.

The skirts with elaborate embroidery and fine pleating. The silk damask on each with some light soiling and fading. There are very minor areas of fraying to the silk threads. Separation along the hem lines to the interior silk lining. Minor small holes and tears concentrated in this area. Overall general soiling from use, particularly to the bottom hem. The pale blue skirt with small repairs to tears. The lilac skirt with some watermarks scattered.

Christie’s strongly suggests viewing this lot in person. You may wish to contact a professional textile conservator with any additional questions as we are unable to provide in-depth condition analysis.
