More Information

The Wahliss figure shows a chip to the right hand shell rim, and a smaller chip to the left hand shell rim. There is a small resinous blob below the left hand vase which may be a repair, but may equally be a drip from something. The female Dux figure has had its head broken off and repaired, and shows a small loss to a highpoint on the base. The male figure appears to be in good condition with no evidence of losses or repair. All three figures show rubbing to the gilt highlights and surface wear commensurate with age.
