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.
No chips, cracks or restorations detected. Some minor pitting and inconsistencies to the thicker engobe, consistent with the artist's technique and early production date of the piece. Fine network of crazing throughout, inherent to the medium. Two tiny unobtrusive losses to the glaze at the rim. The underneath with light wear to the glaze and several footmarks with associated losses, consistent with the firing process and removal of kiln furniture. Four felt tabs underneath. Subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that the present work appears to be in generally excellent original condition, with fresh colours, painterly application of glaze and strong hand engraving.
