The pair appearing in overall fairly good and ready to place condition. Each example revolves on the base and each example signed 'Bertren' [?] to the bottom right of the figural scene. One example with the finial on the top of its lid somewhat loose and needing tightening. This lid appears to have been previously restored. The other urn has its lid firmly affixed and is not removable The gilt bronze mounts are bright and attractive on both examples with scattered instances of oxidation. Additional images are available upon request.

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.
