European Furniture and Decorative Arts

Appearing in overall fairly good, stable, and ready to place condition. One of the vases with chips and small sections of loss to a few of the flower petals. Both examples with small sections of discoloration to the white porcelain flowers and a few examples with a glazed finish. The finish on the metal flower stems is rubbed and peeling in small areas, not immediately noticeable. One of the vases has a few hairline cracks extending from the lip and an area of restoration to one crack along the lip. One of the vases is adhered to the base and the other sits on the base freely. The bases are in good condition. 

The tulips could be removed from the vases if desired. The flowers are mounted to a metal component that fits into the top of the vase.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
