Condition Report
Overall, the condition is good with no cracks, chips, damages or restoration. The quality of the gilding generally remains good throughout with the exception of a couple of leaves in the central sections of the stems (consistent with handling), together with further rubbing visible to the central knops and to the very lower portion of the gilding around the foot rim on one vase. The condition of the painted oval panels is good and there are no obvious scratches or sections of wear.
