Condition Report
Condition generally good to fair, with a few pieces being either fair or poor.
A number of the plates and bowls have minor chips, hairline cracks and surface wear including gilt rub and deterioration of the enamels. I have included images of the worst ten examples.
Crazing throughout, though most noticeable to two p,tea which have also become discoloured.
Both sauce tureens with restoration to covers, one with historic riveting. Also one of the comports is very noticeably deteriorated to the enamels.
Generally speaking, wear throughout commensurate with age and use, will ample additional images to illustrate this.
