Condition

There is some occasional wear to the gilding, particularly to the gilt edges on both vases. One vase has four minuscule chips to the gilt, shaped rimedge. The same vase has several extended haircracks running horizontally halfway around the upper body of the vase and upwards at four places to the rim. The other vase seems to be in generally good condition apart from the wear to the gilding.
