Condition Report

The planter has a shallow fingernail size chip on one corner. Most panels have enamels missing, particularly on the rockwork. There are three, approx 7cm long, vertical hairline cracks on the interior that do not show through to the exterior. The planter rings out nicely when lightly tapped. The planter stand has three large rim chips and there are enamel losses throughout, some enamels are chipped off whilst others appear to be erased through continual use. Gilding on rims partially rubbed on both pieces. See images for damage.

The tea bowl and saucer has some old restoration.
