Condition
02.12.24: In my opinion regarding LOT 1165: I note that both urns are intact and structurally stable, sitting sturdy against flat display surface, the alabaster displays inherent natural inclusions, variations, and fissures, and the gilt bronze mounts appear well-secured, and the covers fit comfortably, the point of joinery of the bronze to the body of the urn is lightly visible on one side, and both have a visible adhesive near the point of joinery of the body of the urn to the foot, one urn has a couple minute chips to the corners of the base, the gilt is notably well retained with minute patination and light pitting, additionally both exhibit minute fleabites to the rim of the mouth commensurate with the putting on of the lid over time
