Both dishes have some enamel flakes and surface wear. The rim of the one dish has been slightly polished down, possibly to remove some frits or nicks. The rim of the other dish has some fritting. One jar has a star crack with restuck flakes to the interior (13 cm). The other jar is however in overall quite good condition with only some scratches, surface wear and enamel flakes which have been slightly retouched. One cover has some chips and flakes (max 2.3 by 1.5 cm), as well as a 2 cm firing crack. The other cover has a 3 cm chip to the inner rim. The vase has a 0.6 cm restored chip and a 2.5 cm associated hairline to the unglazed mouth. There are some wear to the gilt decoration and enamels, but otherwise the overall condition is quite good.
