Condition
The green-ground bowl: A 3 inches by 3 inches section at the rim has been broken off and restored back. There is a 3-inch long restored crack running down from the rim; the restoration extends to the adjacent areas and it is difficult to determine any further possible condition issues.
The other bowl has some very minor and occasional rubbing to gilding. Otherwise in generally good condition.
