Condition
The illustration is accurate despite a little too bright. Good overall condition despite the usual minor scratches and marks due to age and handling. A leaf is missing on a leg. Some chips to the red lacquer of each body. A small hair crack to a body and a longer crack (still thin) on the other one. Some wear to the red lacquer on each cover.
