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 this piece acquired after its initial manufacture.

Vase 1:
- There are some small chips, some fritting and a 2 cm. wide damage associated with three hairline cracks to the mouth rim.
- There are two small chips to the foot rim.

Vase 2 :
- There is a chip and few small chips to the mouth rim, fritting to the mouth rim.
- There is a small chip to the foot rim, associated with a firing crack.
- A small firing crack under the base.

Both vases with some firing flaws as well as some general age-related surface wear as can be expected.
