European Furniture & Decorative Arts

Attractive and in ready to place condition. The mounts are sturdy and exhibit a slightly dull but still rich luster. The porcelain has been drilled to the necks and bottoms to accommodate the mounts. No major chips or cracks observed. There are minor flaws to the porcelain such as dark pitting spots and small instances of lacking celadon glaze, but there is an even, highly glossy finish throughout, suggesting a clear glaze topcoat may have been added later.

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.
