Dining at Home

The domes don't fit well on tureens, especially with liners inserted, meaning the tureens are most likely associated; dome 1: with very minor occasional dings and scratches commensurate with age and use, the washer to underside of lid handle probably replace- kind of loose; dome 2: with very minor occasional dings and scratches commensurate with age and use, the underside interior with two concentrated areas of diagonal scratches- possibly from a pronged utensil- creating slight dents visible on the exterior; the silverplated bases and liners for both with some occasional dings or scratches commensurate with age and use, the handle tips with some roughness and minor surface loss, one liner with some scattered spotting and a couple small areas of oxidation; with some expected occasional tarnish commensurate with age and use; scratch marks to undersides of pieces in lot

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.
