In overall mostly good, ready to place condition. With minor nicks and light surface scratches throughout from minor use and handling, some items with light surface deposit to interiors from use and cleaning. Some tarnish in crevices and white residue from polish. The teapot with a small dent near the base of the spout, and its hinge slightly loose such that the lid can slightly shift off center from the opening when closed. The creamer with a small dent near the base of the body. The oil pot in the water kettle stand sits tightly in its compartment, the lever attached to the lid touching the interior of the stand creating a tight fit for function. The lid to the coffee pot opens and closes smoothly, but sits slightly raised when closed and can slide horizontally slightly from a minor loose hinge. Surface scratches and few very small dents to the top of the tray, the underside with scratches from shelfwear and use. Additional images available upon request.

Condition reports are available upon request. All lots are sold “as is,” in the condition they are in at the time of the auction. The physical condition of lots can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration. Prospective buyers are strongly advised to inspect a lot personally or through a knowledgeable representative prior to bidding. The absence of any reference to the condition of a lot does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections, or the effects of aging. Prospective buyers must review and agree to the Conditions of Sale before participating in an auction, and it is the responsibility of the buyer to ensure that they have requested, received and considered any condition report.
