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.
Overall in good, decorative condition and ready to place. The ormolu with typical light rubbing and oxidation. With some darker scuffs and light surface scratching, as to be expected. With some dirt build up in the crevices. The gilt decoration on the porcelain rubbed resulting in some losses. The upper rim of one vase restored. Drilled and wired for electricity. Please note Christie's does not guarantee the working order of lighting.
