Condition
3JZN6- Conover, Five Vessels
Overall the pieces in the excellent condition with only very gentle wear to surface, rubbing and surface scratches. The taller two vases have their original plastic liner. The open bowl form vessel with some irregularities to the dark glazed interior, which appear inherent in the making. Also with surface scratches and some losses to the finish of the glaze on the lower portion of the bowl, which appears the result of something being stored in it, possibly fruit. A superb group of large scale Conover works in original condition.
